Since moving to the fusion unlimited 30\10 plan, from adsl I have been expericing significantly higher ping than I did previously on ADSL. 

While on ADSL my ping to North America game servers like league of legends would always be 163 ms but since the switch I sit at a constant 219 ms.

This is the same with local and australian connections, I would previously get 54 ping to Australia on Counter strike but since the switch I now sit at a constant 75.

When I speedtest WXC or a New Zealand server I get 44 ping which seems very high to me, since previously it was 20-23.

I am located in Palmerston North near the airport.

What do you think could be causing this significant increase in ping, it is making playing North American servers games unbearable.

https://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3761815092 this is a speed test to NZ showing 44 ping

Below is a tracert to league of legends game server.

I am very happy with the speeds, but I just don't understand why all my pings would suddenly increase by 20 locally and 60 internationally. I value the ping more than the download speeds, but I don't see why I can't have both. I would have thought UFB would actually make my ping lower!

Unfortunately the DLM profile is not something we can set to a certain profile. It will automatically adjust to whatever it is most suitable for your line quality.

I have had the same issue when I changed to VDSL, my DLM profile automatically set itself to the one with highest interleaving because my line would drop off every time it rained. There was nothing I could do about it. I was playing dota2 with 80+ ms latency on Aus servers.

PS. you are currently on this profile  VDSL2-DLM-5  , I will organize with Chorus to reset it to default, then you will need to not restart your modem for a while. It may set itself to a different profile, or end up on the same one.


PPS. It is done, reply from Chorus :
"DLM has been reset as per your request, customer may see occasional re-syncs while profiles are automatically adjusted over the next week."
