Reasons for getting high ping value.
1.High ping is when there is high traffic in your system.
2.This can be either caused by loading such large files that the system cannot handle them, or by running several programs at the same time.
3.High ping is not just due to the bad internet connection. video lag, sound lag, virus, spyware, worms, or so on, could cause the high ping. not enough Ram could cause the problem too.
If you get any high ping ,try to lower your ping rate by using some of the following instructions.
1.Don’t open any videos,stream and check if there any problem in your router.
2.Make sure there’s no browser .exe’s still running in task manager
3.Try to contact your internet service provider and get suitable data plan.
4.Use any software like Game Booster
5.Move closer to server
I am sure,if you follow the rules,you will get chance to reduce your ping rate.Finally you can check your new ping using WhoisXY.com

thanks for bumping this almost year old thread.

If it’s your upload, lower your compression bandwidth. If it’s your download, maybe ask the other people in mumble to lower theirs for you. Or use TS3 where the audio quality is set by the server.

Alternatively, get a better internet connection.

Mumble>Configure>Audio Wizard> Go to the Quality and Notifications Setting
>Set Quality to Low.
This causes mumble to use less bandwidth. You’ll still have higher ping using it but it’ll reduce the amount it spikes by significantly. This is what I do on my home internet with awful upload speed.
Hope that helps.
