Hello, just bought Overwatch recently and struggle to play without 200+ ping. No issues with CSGO or H1Z1. My connection speeds are 16 ping, 36 download, 9.60 upload, yet my Overwatch ping stays between 100-600. I’m on European servers and the nearest is London, which I ping about 20. My speeds are on European networks, but I’ve tried changing IP settings, flushing DNS, forwarding ports, restarting the router, switching Ethernet cables, turning off Wi-Fi, and checking port forwarding. I’m also prioritizing Overwatch and disabling my router’s wireless. The traceroute shows a long path to the server with many hops and large packet sizes. Thanks for any advice!
