Hey all,
Just moved back to the west coast yesterday (Vancouver Island), and getting 150ms ping constantly. Almost like I'm being sent to Azure servers in Toronto or something like that?
I've done most troubleshooting already, reset date/time, flushed DNS, reset renew IPv4 and V6, power cycled everything, made sure IP Helper is running, cleared my hosts file.
The interesting this is that if I VPN to Seattle I can bring that ping down to 40ms.
This leads me to think it's something with the way my traffic is getting routed, like it's trying to keep it to the closest Canadian Edge Node which I can only assume in Central or East, even though based on Geography, I can swim to Seattle?
Is there any sort of localization/region locking to West/East NA servers in Sea of thieves that I can reset? I haven't uninstalled and reinstalled.
I only have this issue in SoT, nothing else, but odds are this is the only game running on MS cloud servers the rest are probably AWS or Google hah. Maybe I should try Halo and see what my ping is like.
