After 10 days the problem is back... back to 160 ms PING. I had a fight with my ISP, as they blaimed it on "busy" gameservers... I have no reasonable hypothesis for this issue.
Everything worked fine for over a year. Then suddenly beginning of may 160 ms ping. 2 Weeks ago they changed my modem, and back to 19 ms, only after 10 days it's back to 160 ms. The ISP won't help me anymore, I have no idea what I can do or what the problem can be. Anybody any idea to help? I would appreciate it very much!

Do you have a ping plotter trace route from the days your ping went back to 19ms? It's definitely a routing issue causing the problem.
Ping is fine until hop #8 10.246.114.11 which is a private router inside your ISP's network. From there we can't tell where the connection is being routed because the routers stop responding. All we can see is the Amazon game server router responding at the very end hop.
So between 10.246 114.11 and Amazon's router is where the routing problem is.
Most likely your ISP is choosing a slower route because it saves them money. If your ISP refuses to help, then your only option is to try a VPN service which might offer faster routing. Or change ISP if that is an option.
