Hi diox :cool:
Ping is latency on the Net, and not your computer, therefore it can not be lowered. If your ping times have increased, it's likely due to network congestion. If your latency is consistently high, you need to question your provider as to your routing.
You could also have your ISP run a test on your modem.

would my network drivers or adapters i installed effect my ping or dsl?
