Low Ping - High IND spikes seemingly at random.
This happens with ORD1 - I joined an LA server & had higher ping (80ms) but no IND spikes.
I am located in South Carolina w/ a 1GBps fiber connection.
I am experienced with networking and have worked in the IT industry - this is making me scratch my head.
Any idea what could be causing it? I’ve tried just about everything short of putting my router in a bucket of rice.

^^^ The above is purely in the Practice range. It’s 5x worse in a Quick Play match.
***This only happens with Overwatch, every other online game I play averages 20ms ping and ZERO rubberbanding, lag spikes, frame drops, etc.
I’m running an HP Omen w/ Nvidia 2060 / 32GB RAM @ 165FPS
You can’t use a practice range IP for these tests, as those are deprioritized servers and won’t have much traffic. You’ll need to gather the IP from a quickplay match, and I recommend PingPlotter instead of WinMTR. Looks like you’re on IPv6, which WinMTR does not support.
Noted - thank you so much for the info. I didn’t know any of those things!
I will follow up asap! I’m running a few other tests to avoid wasting valuable technician time.
There are some low hanging fruits like the pure distance of my wireless run. I’m trying not to embarass myself.
I’m getting pretty high latency as well. I will say that my ping was normal when I solo queued but as soon as I queued with my teammate, we were both 160+ latency. I also think I’m playing with players from the Korean servers, when I live in the U.S. Here’s my PingPlotter info from 1 game.

The ping starts getting bad in NTT’s network, which is who your ISP (AT&T/SBC Global) works with to route their traffic.
Oh okay. I assume there isn’t much I can do to prevent that then?
You can call AT&T and tell them you’re having very bad lag when playing games. If you pay them for service yourself, it’s worth asking for said service.
