I've been getting high pings "140+" to Chicago servers which is making FPS gaming hard. I looked into it more and it looks like the problem is with a Tier 1 provider either Telia or Zayo, or maybe they are the same company since I have limited knowledge of transit providers.

I'm hoping they will look into the issue and resolve it.
