I played in beta and i dont have issue but when i play on live my ping would shoot to 1000 to 4000. and it only smooth on the first 10 minutes or so. I dont know what else i should do so any help is appreciated.

things i tried

restarting.

Im using starlink so i tried to relocate the dish.

turning off firewall in my asus modem

turning off firewall in my pc

turning on and off qos

turning on and off ipv6

changing poton

I tried several ping checker and in my browser everything seem normal

      When I was playing World of Warships, on at least two separate occasions I had extreme packet loss towards their servers. It affected many players in different countries but not everybody. Network tools indicated that a connection adjacent to their server center was the cause, but they still blamed customers’ ISPs. I used VPN for a week or so until it appeared to be resolved.

      Only thing that comes to mind is that you could try talking to your ISP’s technical support, and maybe they can help you troubleshoot the issue
