Ok, the 999 you mention is very high latency rate, I have seen over 6,000 once and that was satellite! Nothing can be done with that part. The best latency rate I have seen was 25, I was like whoa! I love that one!
The ping really represents as hops between servers to servers, depending on where, believe it or not there could be over 3,000 servers connects from somebody in New York city to Los Angeles! That is why each connections has to be clean to maintain low latency rates.
Be careful, few HSI will charge you if you reset modem, it is best to call them first.
Well, I had reset my modem for many time and checked on phone bill, they don't charge on me, just nothing at all but I used to call them before and ask me to do power cycle if any issues are occured.
Oh shit about satellite internet, The Sims online is best running on dial-up than satellite does but cable/DSL is #1, dial-up is #2.
I NEVER to get satellite internet, that strictly unacceptable for gamers.
