I have high speed internet connected through a linksys system wirelessly to my laptop. It's high speed and gets me pretty decent ping. Since yesterday, however, I'm getting 200 ping on local servers just a few hundred miles from me. I'm from Cincinnati and I'm getting over 150 ping usually in servers from Chicago, Virginia, and Texas. Sometimes it jumps to 400. German servers are over 300 normally. What on earth is going on?
