Hey on all the servers for Realm Wars there Pings are like around 100's. But when i run my dedicated server, and i go and test my server, the ping for it is like 7. Do I have some sort of internet connection problem or something? I need help....

It's all down to the amount of time it takes data to get from your PC to the server and back again. Your local network will be significantly faster than your Internet connection hence the difference in ping speeds.

If your server is on your LAN, then that sounds about right. If you set your server up and then go and check it from somewhere else (Internet cafe, work, etc) you should see higher pings.It's all down to the amount of time it takes data to get from your PC to the server and back again.

Your ping david is the time it takes for a packet of data to be sent from one computer to another. You really cannot help it if the person has dialup, or lives in afghanistan. Those people will have high pings. I've found that pings of 100 are perfectly acceptable, 125 is mediocre, and 99 and below are ideal.
