Over 300 pings specifically in Rocket League
Over 300 pings specifically in Rocket League
I've been playing Rocket League for roughly two weeks, and everything seems to be running smoothly except for some occasional ping problems. These issues mostly disappeared when I switched lobbies. Today, however, every match I start has a steady ping above 300, only dropping to around 200 at times. I initially assumed my connection was weak in the lobby, thinking maybe my friend—who uses the same internet provider and lives nearby—had a similar problem with about 30 ping. That didn’t resolve it. Then I checked my internet speed using Speedtest.net and PingTest.net, both showing around 35 ping. When I switched back to Rocket League, the situation remained poor. I turned to Minecraft to test for latency on other servers, but it worked fine there too. Now I’m trying to figure this out further. My rig is connected via Wi-Fi rather than Ethernet, so I didn’t want to invest in a long cable. I’m hoping someone can help me with a solution.
These latency fixer tools are likely scams designed to make clients believe their connection is strong. Poor ping usually means a real physical problem that software can't resolve. The most probable reason here is that the developers shut down a POP service for maintenance, and it affected your specific setup.
Probably a beginner, but a POP is something you might hear about in gaming or streaming.
