Can't say it's totally fixed, but it's better than before after they have shifted few people to Patna Server and others on Kolkata ( including me). It's still an ongoing transition. Took almost 10 months.
 
@Md Faraz
If that's the case then i still have to live with bad pings for another 3-4 months.Can u give me some Mumbai pings thanks 🙂
 
 
Don’t know if its location specific or gateway issue. I observed that after airtel moved to cg-nat , i am getting high ping to gateway ip sometimes like 30 ms or 50ms.

following are the steps done:

1. Power on the router, got pppoe connection after that when i pinged gateway i got 30-50ms latency to that.

2. Disconnected pppoe and then connected again, still getting high latency.

3. performed step 2 again, now gateway ping is 2-3 ms and remains consistent till I disconnect again.

4. after disconnecting i have to perform step 2 multiple times to get good gateway latency.

Tried with both Nokia router and TP-Link bridge mode. Same issue.

also tried with my brothers connection and is same.

it seems that cg-nat is assigning different locations gateways internally .


can someone from Chandigarh share their gateway ping ?
