High Ping only in BF1
Pretty much I only get high ping in BF1. I live in Australia, the servers are hosted in Sydney and normally I get 35ms to a Sydney server.
I have a fibre optic connection (100 down/40 up). I do no...

It's very funny that the issue started in February and during the past few months people still coming here saying that they have the same issue and, with all respect to the support team and EA, nothing was fixed till now, most of the people did every possible step in the troubleshooting steps provided by EA:
Do a UO Trace test
Use port forwarding to the ports
Connect through cable
Disconnect the Wi-Fi
Reboot your router and console
Use Google DNS
set a static IP Address for your console
Log into your region servers
And when the options run out, they will come up with your ISP, contact your ISP it's there problem,
You do this and they send you back to EA, and EA Support team through chat keep telling you that their servers are good and up and it's your ISP problem! While your connection speed is good, ylur NATtype is good, your speedtest results showing a PERFECT ping for the server, except the game servers!
Luckly for me I tried to play in 2 different countries and have the same issue that leaves me with no doubt that it's EA's fault. I'm from Egypt, and usually connect to Europe servers, last month all the servers were green but instead of getting the usual ping for me there (around 75-85) I was getting 600!, and it was fixing itself later don't know how for real but it was working normallly after that issue. Then in Saudi Arabia, it's usually around 120 - 140, servers all in yellow with 3 signals which is not acceptable for any of the other players here but I was doing good anyway till this number jumped tonight to 360! BTW, Asia servers mostly in RED in case anyone would suggest to join servers in the same region. So till someone will figure the unknown reason for this issue, we wish if EA and the ISP around the world would set together and come out with a clarification for this issue if EA think it's the ISP issue as long as they are denying it. we won't get mad if any of you declared that there is a problem and we're working on it. We will get mad and lose our temper if we will just keep talking here without any clarification from those who in charge.

Oh dear,
started playing BF1 via Origin Access a week ago. Everything was fine, i was able to play the standard maps with an perfect ping between 30 and 50 on all server sizes (even the 64 ones).
A few day ago i started playing the single player campaign and after i finished it, i decided to buy BF1 Revolution with Premium etc... for 54€.
At the same moment i couldn't play any longer on the 64 player servers.
Now the 64 player server have always a ping from 120 - 200 every freaking minute a day. Hit detection is most of the time complete broken, i just join the servers to die.
With Origin Access and BF1 without any DLC i was able to play on any server with a nice ping. Now with all DLCs and Premium i get only a good ping on 32 or smaller servers? WTF?
I have more 20 different online game running fine without any connection or ping problems, it's just BF1 after i purchased the Revolution version....
Btw. Germany - Provider: German Telekom- totally agree !
On PC here. Wanted to jump in here and mention the same thing. I usually ran no higher than 60 ping (Canada Ab) on almost any server regardless if they were in the green or yellow (100+).
But recently (stopped playing the game for awhile), even if I join the 60 (green) ping servers, I get on and wow, I'm at a whopping 140 or more.
What happened? My new router (XR500 god bless this beauty) dramatically improved my gaming experience and connection to every other game I own (Doom, R6 Siege, Overwatch etc). But BF1 just chokes me to death. Hit markers are so out of whack.
I refuse to believe it's my connection. Various speedtests show me at 250+ down and 10 up with pings averaging easily at around 50 and jitters never higher than 1.5. Even bufferbloat tests show me at A+, A with only a dramatic spikes at the very start of the test and the upload spiking once or twice at the end of the test thus resulting in a lower score.
I switched to Google DNS which seems to help on average with everything, tried changing to various ones, I'm on static IP, only thing left to try is to plug my ethernet straight into the modem and we all know that's a * move.
Anyone else improve theirs through others means I may not be aware of?
