do you have cable modem? if you do, your line might have "static" or "line interference" or something like that. i had 1.5 dsl for a while and it ran awesome. usually the lowest latency in the server, now that i switched to cable, its kinda crazy. if you're using the cable provider's cable modem/router, then thats probably whats making you ping so high. thats what i use and i can't find a game that will ping anything under than 1999. if you just use a cable provided cable modem, and use your own router, that should straighten things out.

when i had the cable company modem and my own router, i would ping decent, but it would fluctuate and freeze in the middle of the game. i think this is because of loss packets. this is a cable line problem in which you have to call the cable company and let them know so they can come out and fix it.
