    Yep, looks very high to me

    I have an average ping of about 250 on my 56K modem.

    Sorry I can't be of more help.

    Regards

    Once your ping request leaves your computer and your ISP's network, everything is left up to the routers. As far as I know, there isn't a lot you can do to control the route that your request takes.

    Your ISP probably uses Infoave's backbone and if that's the case you have no control over it. You could call your ISP and tell them of the problem at Infoave and see if they can petition Infoave to fix the problem. Your ISP will most likely tell you that they don't guarentee pings and will tell you that they won't do anything.

    I'd just call your ISP and see what they can do about it.

    I thing it may have been a temporary thing cause about an hour after that my average ping was about 40 and has been for quite some time... got my router in today also so its time to have more fun with netwroking YIPEE!
