Gm's, why are the server so laggy?

It is impossible to play without ping spike every 5 seconds. My normal ping is 50-60, max at 70, but now it is 64 - 200, sometimes it's up to 500. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?

What server?

Been playing on UK 4-5 all night, not one spike.

¨Not sure why you'd link to my thread, since you haven't posted in it.

Anyway, it's not exactly unheard of for a long-distance connection to be unstable.
Theres an awful lot of routers in between Texas and Toronto, or Texas and Cali.

Maybe post in the thread you linked how long it's been like this, whether it's the same on every server (NA W, NA 1, UK 1, UK 5) in terms of stability.
Wired, wireless, well I think it's pretty much covered in my post in the thread.

I got spikes too, sometimes it takes so long to connect to the server or I lag like hell when everyone else doesn't.

I'm also from Texas, go go Texans, lel.
