In the evenings since some time last week ping times to a host in france which i connect to for things that require low ping (ok...it's gaming :)) have been very high, 150-200ms. Usually it's around 16-22ms and I have no problems on the old network.
The new network however seems to use different routing into the hosts network and from around 7-8pm till 10-11pm the ping times go quite high.
7 12 ms 12 ms 12 ms core1-BE1.southbank.ukcore.bt.net [195.99.125.130]
8 13 ms 14 ms 13 ms peer1-et-10-1-0.telehouse.ukcore.bt.net [195.99.127.3]
9 139 ms 138 ms 135 ms be100-104.ldn-1-a9.uk.eu [178.33.103.232]
10 19 ms 18 ms 17 ms be11-1187.rbx-g1-a9.fr.eu [91.121.128.86]
So yes it's just between hops 8 and 9 where the issue lies...is that a problem with BT's network or the hosts network or both and is there anything plus can do about it?
New network woes...different routing...sigh

Errrm, NOPE !
The ONLY hop which matters is the final one, i.e. the host which you are trying to communicate with.
Each line of the traceroute just shows the individual reply time (to PING requests) from each router along the path, back to your PC.
The PING latency along the route is not cumulative, so it doesn't matter that on your hop#9 takes a little longer - it just means that particular device is a bit slow to respond to PING requests and doesn't necessarily mean that that device will also be slow at processing your traffic.
If all following hops (after #9) were also similarly slow, then that would provide an indication that the connection to hop#9 is either slow, or perhaps is a long distance away, but they aren't - so don't worry about it !.
What is the domain name (or IP address) of the the host you are trying to reach ? - so others here can also try tracerouting to it.

outside of the specified times both pings to that hop and the game server are fine
also the server has disabled ICMP so any hops after what I've pasted will time out but if you want a go it's

*edit*
and it's back to normal
...till tomorrow evening

Next time it's bad, reply to this thread, and see if anyone can give you an alternative trace for comparison.

Seemingly permanently connected to the same gateway on the same IP subnet so you can't gateway hop to see if you can get a better connection...
The old network was seemingly better for my needs 😛
