increasing ping?

When I play online games, I often have trouble finding a server due to high ping. how can I lower my ping? before playing, I close all background tasks and programs. I have the fastest internet package that sympatico has available. my internet runs at 10mbps.

Re: increasing ping?

Decreasing the ping isn't always easy. Much of it depends on your ISP and the type of connection you have to them.
