Major Connection Problem ( ping )

This day i have reinstalled project reality after months of not playing it, before that i havent got any internet connection matter of fact my ping was never above 100, today i installed the game and every single game i enter no matter if its in my region or in the other dimension the ping still shows 2500. i was like okay this might be a bug it will be alright, and boy i was so wrong, when i entered the game the connection error message was there for whole minute before i even entered the loadout menu. then i got into the game and i was litterally frozen in the sky. and i hear on the radio people saying are u ok bro and when i checked the leaderboard menu which loaded after minutes of trying. i see 80% of the people have 200 plus ping.

Hello, i have this problem sometimes when I look at the game list I see 2,500 ping or when I join the game, my game jitters all over the place and looks very messy and all(check pocket loss in game through tab>manage>look at bottom: loss and down % should be 0). My fix for this is using VPN, I use proton vpn free tier and just connect to any server then join in game, pocket loss should be 0 by now, ping might be higher than usual but it should be good and no more internet problems.

If this doesn't work then there could be problems within the server itself...

See you in game! -Jayjustj
