Speed isn't ping
Mbps measures how much fits through your connection. Ping measures how long data takes to get there and back.

Connection quick guide
High ping in Core Keeper even with fast internet
Download speed and ping are two different things. A high-speed plan does not guarantee a good route to the Core Keeper server: your ISP may send your traffic down long paths or through congested exchange points. That is where an alternate route helps.
Too many hops
Every router along the way adds delay and is one more place that can get congested.
Alternate route
GamesTC sends Core Keeper traffic down a different path that avoids the bad segments.
Shorter path
A more direct route to the Core Keeper data center.
Around congestion
Avoids overloaded exchange points on your ISP's route.
Keep your internet
GamesTC runs on top of the connection you already have.
