Hey guys.
Lately I've been having a very high ping when I'm gaming Gmod. It keeps raising from about 50 to 400-500. I dont know why, because I'm not downloading anything nor using other programs.
It's not happening on my Mac (well that's what I think) so I really cant figure out what's happening?

Take a look at the Task Manager to see, if there are any unnecessary programs.
If there isn't anything open,scan your PC on some virus software's.

Perhaps the high ping is due to your location in relation to the server? I play from Australia and my ping is constantly between 250-325.

It may be your internet, i live in a valley with allot of fog...
And sometimes the connection gets really crappy down here.
I am not saying that you may be living in a valley, but if there is fog or bad weather, the ping will go up. I wish you the best of luck.
EDIT: And to Defrag would maybe help, i am not a genius but it should help ya.

Try restarting the router :c
Live a good life. If there's a god and he's just, he will not care of how devout you are, he will accept you for the virtues you have based your life upon. If there's no god, then you will have gone, but you will have lived a noble life which will stay in the memories of those that you love.

Be sure not to be in Australia, that normally fixes my ping issues.
