Middle East Server

[Sanrotoky]

I understand, but this problem occurs to most of the players from the ME. We have no options in the servers therefore we are forced to bear with the lag and such. This happens to the most of us and opening a new server would be a huge problem fixer.

Well my results are horrible
I got 48ms to my own country lol





What I don't understand is though that in Dota 2 EU West server which would be Luxembourg my ping varies between 150-370ms.
It depends on the game if I'm lucky I get the 150 or the 370 or anything in between.
But I learnt that when I have 370ms ping sometimes when I restart my internet connection and reconnect to the game it's possible (50% chance) that I get a way better ping (200 maybe).
Any ideas what the reason to this might be?

Hey bro lets check where your ping spikes! post a traceroute to valves lux server.

Also let me know the public ip and time of day when you did the trace. Some providers have different routes for different IP address ranges. This is to balance out their traffic but it makes latency vary depending on which path you are taking. They might even be dynamically shifting stuff around in which case it gets much harder.

Well a new server for Middle eastern countries would be good because
-->We don't have to rely upon other far away servers
-->Those other servers would be free from our load.

How do i check my ping in the valve server from speedtest or such?

[Balthazerg]

Valve is the best out there, I am sure they will find the best solution in the end. but a ME server would be great

Public ip: 89.148.35.237

EU WEST(Lux) : 146.66.153.1

EU EAST(austria) : 146.66.155.1

Russia(sweden) : 146.66.156.1

SEA(singapore) : 103.28.54.1

ping or traceroute to these ips via cmd!

I don't actually play dota myself but I believe if you type -ping into the chat window you can see your in game ping. But what I am more interested in is the out from the ping and tracert command from a dos prompt. Run these commands with an ip of one of our EU datacenters you are laying in

Eu west 146.66.152.1
Eu east 146.66.155.1
Russia/Sweden 146.66.156.1
