What are you pinging?
i told you in other post what i ping now but when i was on sh!t gear and on dsl i would ping 56 or so to chicago, thats around 240miles away, but with cable and sh!t gear i was about the same, after i got better gear i ping around 16 to 32 to chicago and average 56 to newyork (around 1000miles away).  i know that distance doesnt always determine your ping as well but i am MCP MTA certified and i go to school for networking and server administrating. i know that type of ISP GEAR AND SETUP determines over all proformance no matter what..  like i said in other post.. you could have 100mb download but 
sh!t gear and it will equil sh!t net overall bottom line.Geek

I meant what are you ping to? Not your rate. The point I was making is that pinging different servers will result in different ping rates. Bandwidth is only a small part of the equation, which your point is proving. I think we are arguing for the same thing only from different directions.
 
The point I was makming earlier is that people believe that if they have more bandwidth, their ping rates to gaming servers will lower. Not necessarily true. There is a point of diminishing returns on higher bandwidth equalling lower ping rates. As long as a user's bandwidth is larger than the packet sizes, there are no restriction causes by the internet connection. Higher ping resulting from that situation means there is something else at play which is causing higher ping, as you have explained.
 
Simply put, a 100MB download/100MB upload bandwidth would do nothing special for a gamer unless they are sending packets of information that are 100MB or less, which is never the case in gaming.

Did you switch ISP's or just held a knife to your networking engineer saying:
GIVE ME FASTER INTERNET!!
