Re: Ping problem
I would check a couple things:
1) Being on cable you may be sharing you line with other people around your house. Check you pings at different times of the day. If it's always high around 8:00 to 10:00 then I would assume that it's caused by your neighbor.
2) Make sure all other devices that use the internet are off. (Xbox360, other PC or whatever) Just the other day I had a crazy high ping due to my 360 downloading a demo while in sleep mode.
3) You may just have a crappy connection. You can call the cable company and ask them to check the line.
Let us know if you find a solution or the cause to the problem since it may help someone else out there.
