"High Ping" Autokicking for no reason. (Australia servers with NZ player)
New, WishlistPublic

Description

I live in NZ, so I usually join AU servers most (If not all) the time and whenever I'm not even a minute into the game, I get spontaneously kicked EVERY TIME I rejoin the server for having nearly 700 - 1000 ping (Usually 45 or less than 100 all the time) so I'm pretty peeved about this. {F25706}

Steps To Reproduce

I just join a server, then kick for "High Ping". (See attached screenshot)

Additional Information

I can take an educated guess that the MP patch from here: http://dev.arma3.com/post/spotrep-00038 has been whats screwing me over and over again.
Before the this specific update, I played this game with no problems whatsoever.

Do you use any proxy in the background (f.e. hotspot shield)? Those things can cause a high ping.

By the way: Your attached picture is a little bit too small.

Sorry, that was one of the only screenshots I could munch out, as it is a Steam screenshot.
But no, I had nothing downloading at all, not even Skype running.

I have got the same problem since 1.40.
i m not from NZ ! :)

I have submited the problem on BI forum : http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?189619-1-40-Ping-raising-up-without-reason-!&p=2895472#post2895472
