May be interesting and useful to see what y'all get. Using start button, run box, enter cmd, then type and enter in that window, tracert 70.86.73.59 . This is TAC BF2 server ip. You could use this to test other server ip as well. These will vary at different times, days, weeks, months, yrs, etc. :peace: Here's mine as of the moment.

 

What do the 3 different numbers mean for each net hub ?

Are these good, okay, poor, or what ?

Looks like shaw part is good. It looses going from Shaw to U.S. hubs then planet hubs ?

I found easy way to make "TAC BF2 ping.bat" file on desktop for simple double clicking to run ping test of their server so you know if any point starting bf2 to try it.

 

Create new txt file on desktop, name it whatever with .bat extension. Edit it, enter this : cmd /k tracert 70.86.73.59

and save it.

 

Now clicking it gives instant connect test results. :peace:

I had about 2 hrs mostly lag free. recently, after taking 5 min break, came back and noticed favorite server list showing tac ping above usual 90 i see, at 160. so i closed bf2 and ran quick ping check. here is the bottleneck of the time it found. appears to be not my shaw but the intermediate planet.com hub 70.84.160.166 .

Thanks abadd. I guess you are in L.A area ? If so, I'm surprised you didn't get better readings being closer.

heres mine kinda long, but my ping is usually in the 40-50's.
