kinda random slightly LOL related question...
Check for packet loss
Press [Windows Key] + R
Type cmd into the run box and hit OK. You should now have an open command prompt that is a black screen with white lettering.
Type: ping http://www.google.com t
Hit Enter
That is from the league of legends tech support FAQ on improving ping/latency. When i run it with -t, i get packet loss and lots of response times spiking up to 1000ms from an average of 50ms. Riot says to call your ISP if this happens so I did. They had me run the same test but use -n instead of -t. Doing the test this way produced no packet loss(still had the 1k spikes) so my ISP said nothing is wrong. The person on the phone could not provide a reason for using or a difference in -t and -n and I cant find anything through google. any help?
