It seems every move or change makes the ping that much worse...
The question here being has is recently moved?
I didn't notice any news updates but my ping has gotten from 280 (barely playable) to 410 (completely unbearable)..Seems every move gets further and further away...i anticipate in a few months you'll be hosting from the moon at this rate. O.o
Anyway the point of the post is my ping has gone up and if there hasn't been a recent move (of what looks to be a few of the servers, namely no mods no bs 24/7 2fort) then has anyone got any ideas, i've killed my router/connection, pc, etc.

it's either valve's fault or the (terrible) server provider

Source doesn't hate you phate, it's just that nomods server has been terrible with the lag lately. Play on the server for more then five minutes and it's all anyone complains about(Other than hell-met and his abuse of pipebombs and admin power)

There haven't been any recent moves. The servers are still in Texas. If you want to be helpful, post tracert results.

I did the trace on the server end. It seems to be a fault with ntt.

The packets are seriously going from Dallas, to Chicago, New York, Amsterdam (where it seems to switch provider), back to New Jersey, then to LA, then to San Jose, and then make its way to Australia. Fucking nuts.
These sorts of things typically resolve themselves, but post back again if not. How long has it been an issue?

I'm not seeing it anymore on the server end. Pings in the mid 200s. Do a trace on your end to confirm.
