Same IPS, same Router, Different pings with different PC

312 Views 8 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  Alex132
My Connection flow is:
One IPS --> One Router --> Four PCs

Ping Result :
PC 1 = 30+
PC 2 = 30+
PC 3 = 30+
PC 4 = 300+ to 400+

Connected via cat5E ethernet cables.

I've tried to swap the cable of PC 3 and PC 4, the ping results are the same.

Additional info : When i switch on my PC 4, if i did the ping test af fast as i've logged into the window, i get a ping of 30+, but after few minutes, its always at least 300+.

Please help.

Try checking background programs. There might be some program eating into your bandwidth. And try a bit of registry tweaks to see if the ping lowers down.
Use Resource Monitor to see if anything is eating traffic.
You could also try to update NIC drivers.

If it 'takes a while to kick in' it's probably some sort of background software or malware.
Hi,

Thanks for the reply, may i know how do i check which background programme is causing the high ping? And what is a registry tweak?

You can see network usage via Resource monitor. (start -> all programs -> accessories -> system tools -> resource monitor).

Unless there is something running on that machine that isn't on the others and that is using resources, I don't see what program could be causing a problem.

Try reinstalling/installing/updating your NIC drivers as suggested above.
