Why do I have high ping?

My normal ping is 200 but sometimes(like 5 out of 10 of all games I play) it rises up to 260, 330, 418 and then even up to the 5000s!
Please SUGGEST to me as to why I have this problem.

    Move closer to server / stop being BR/PT/TR / get better provider / get fiber glass 120Mbit/s
  • The Ping is Bad, when there are Problems with Z8 servers

    Or the Server is Geographically away from U

    Or Ur Internet Connection is Bad

    Or even Ur Router is not receiving everything from the server in a proper way

    If there are Server Problems: all Players will experience a high Ping (which is not the case here)

    If ur internet is Bad or U are away from the server, then try to buy a better connection or change the provider

    If U need to check ur router settings then:
    Consult your router's documentation on how to either disable the router's firewall, or place your computer in the demilitarized zone (DMZ). Unfortunately because of the sheer number of different routers I am unable to provide a how-to here on the forum. If you are not using a router, be sure to allow all traffic from the the following IP addresses:

    SERVER1=74.200.6.161
    SERVER2=74.200.6.163

    Here are links to the support pages of the most common router manufacturers:

    Linksys

    Netgear

    Well your best bet would be to move out of South America, or play a game hosted in South America. Trust me we dont wont you laggers here.
