   I'm on steam now. I'm trying to play ravaged but I keep getting warnings that my ping is too high. I changed it to the lowest setting of 250 but I get the same thing and sometimes vehicles in the game will show running from the same spot over and over. Could this be router issue?

Maybe, or it could just be the server your connecting to.

Think of the internet as a giant spider web. Each spot is a hop that your connection goes through. So just posting to this site your going through maybe 10 to 20 hops.

SO when playing online it really doesnt matter where your connecting to and the connection path it takes to get there.

You can also keep an eye on your system ping with my program here, I made it for this purpose :-)
