Spiking Ping (from 70 to 2000) Every 3 Minutes

Hi guys, I'm curious if anyone has experienced spiking ping in game lately. My normal ping in NA is 70 but lately it kept jumping to 2000 every 3 minutes or whenver I shoot an enemy. This high ping would cause my game to freeze for 5-10 seconds. After that it would be back to normal and then repeat.

I have tried to reinstall the game, reset my modem and router, end unnecessary tasks but the issue is still not resolved. It just started happening about last week.

Please let me know if there is a way to fix this issue. Thanks!

  • You should know the path of your connection (Traceroute sends a sequence of packets across the network and receives responses from each router in the path). By doing this, it determines if there are any problems along the path from your home router/modem to the CrossFire servers (in this case, Alpha server).

    Each "Hop" means a node, or a device, or a router. By doing this, we know why our latency is increasing.

    Unfortunately, I can't share the server IP around here. I won't post the server IP over here, just because I'm not sure if that's against the Z8Games&CrossFire terms and conditions.
  • The higher connection is likely due to overuse of the Internet, during a coronavirus crisis. In many countries.
