High ping from ae1-br01-eqny8.as57976.net host weeknights around 9 p.m

there are not different world and home servers that can be pinged. the home server connection basically handles chat, and a few other things that don’t use much data. your world server connection handles lots of data, basically everything and everyone around you that you need to see data about. these two can be different for a variety of reasons. you would be pinging the same IP address listed in the winmtr instructions for either of them. more explanation of that is here Common Technical Issues and Solutions - #22 by Drakuloth

@dartlock - that server will always show high worst latency. how high it shows doesn’t really matter - it being 500 later and 3919 now, either way, it’s not a meaningful result. the way you can tell it is that your worst latency on the last hop is 53. If your slowest packet reached the servers in 53ms, it stands to reason that there was not a 4 second delay a few hops earlier. that’s generally true for any winmtr result - losing packets, latency, etc, is only meaningful if once the problem starts, it keeps going the rest of the way. like in your first hop, you’re losing 100% of your packets, but then they’re back in the next hop, so we can ignore that as your modem or router is just set not to respond to the test.
