sorry m8..the rest of us live in the civilized world! were not in the middle of the out back chugging fosters eating Vegemite sandwiches quoting crocodile dundee and remembering the glory days of riding with the toecutter,knightrider and bubbznetti
i have a few squad m8's from the land down under and there pings are around 250-300 when they join a server in the states...im not sure why yours would be so high unless you really are remote.
have you done all the ping tests starting with the closest to the farthest?
I ask because i have seen a cat45 cable go bad and cause alot of signal attenuation.
S!
