Other ping boosters?

[Hex_Gamer]

A few days ago I was told to get a program called WTFast to improve my ping. I can't get it to work...it keeps saying there's an error. I swear I got the username and password correct. The Canadian servers are down so I can't use those... are there ANY other ways to make my ping better?

WTFast doesn't actually boost your ping.

Canadian servers have been down for a while. I am not sure if it is making a return because of the lack of players.
However using WTFast, you can use it to improve your ping to US servers. I personally get a 20-30 ping difference with it somehow. You just have to use the closest WTFast server near you.
Sometimes it doesn't reduce ping, but I can tell you that it DOES make your ping a lot more stable and prevents it from fluctuating.

I didn't ask if it worked or not, I aksed for other ways to improve my ping.

It does. For the players who get bad ping, it's not going to make a difference at all if you already get very good ping.
I get 140-160 ping to EU, using WTFast it gets down to 110-120.

I didn't say it doesn't work. I said I can't get it installed.

Jeez

Other ways to improve ping is
- Use a wired connection to your router, if you use WiFi, then make sure you are close enough for a 5bar, otherwise you will get some delay.
- Upgrade your internet plans, if you have fiber optic available in your area, than definitely get it because it helps by a lot.
- Use QoS in your router configurations, look it up.
- If someone else in your house uses the same internet, then that can make your ping a lot worse because even watching a youtube video can increase your ping by 200+.

No it does not. It tricks your computer into displaying lower ping than what is actually there.

That is false. but I am not going to get any further with this WTFast discussion as it has nothing to do with the thread.

No it's not false. There is simply no way ping can be improved by rerouting it through ANOTHER server.
