And I'm in Jersey, only 1.5 hours from the city. I've seen other people have similar issues with the servers closer to them having a higher ping. Does anyone know why this is? Does it have to do with traffic to that server? | ||

The numbers are color coded to help you figure out what is high or low. hmm hmm hmm and what if one server has 30 avg but 3jitter and another 40 avg and 0,5 jitter  ? | ||

https://www.xsplit.com/issues.php "Justin/TwitchTV & Own3d ingest location ping tester dropdown Try to dropdown the Location list. Implementation is very much inspired by R1CH. He came up with the idea for this functionality and we could not help but to include this as a native part of XSplit." | ||

This tool will make the choice for you. There are several options for scan preferences + the ability to copy results to clipboard by selection (if enabled). Since I cannot use images.. Results Getting data Three runs same settings one after the other Copied to clipoard This tool will automatically select the three best servers and test only them to provide an accurate result in less time. The tool can also test all available servers and will always create the list from best to worst using the value of average ping + jitter For example 2 servers with a ping of 50ms the one with less jitter would be set as the better server or results like 48ms ping and 2 jitter would be better than 45ms with 6 jitter.

Yes, the tool(s) are accurate in the way they operate. They will tell you the optimum server to stream to, based on average round trip response times. But they don't tell you the available throughput between you and the server, and this is typically what limits your streaming capabilities (when referring to network). As an indicator for throughput you can use sites like speedtest.net to get a ballpark estimate of your throughput. | ||
