This is one of the games i play via steam >
http://www.holdfastgame.comBefore i switched id be getting 20-30 ms now i get 80-90.
Gamer's need the lowest ping possible otherwise game play can sometimes be affected.
Battlefield 1 i also play from time to time, some night i ping on eu servers around 28-35 and sometimes i'm hitting 80-90 again.
I'm not trying to put idnet down, im just trying to find a reason why or a fix.

Someone replied to me on the idnet forum saying following....
I experienced the same, traffic to my server at Hetzner was going via Netnod in Stockholm. I contacted both Hetzner and IDNet about it last week, and this morning was informed by IDNet that they are now peering with Hetzner at AMS-IX (Amsterdam).
My new route is below, I expect you'll see similar improvement. For me, this means 49ms instead of 100ms
Code: [Select]

But my test is not as good as his.
