Bad pings? You are in Winnipeg and getting 48 ms to Washington state and 26 ms to Chicago. Those look great, no problem. Unless you can find a way to increase the speed of light, you're unlikely to get much better.

That doesn't mean anything. Hop routers typically rate limit ICMP on purpose to help lessen the impact of ICMP related DDoS attacks. If you get high latency to a hop in between and lower latency to a future hop, then the initial high latency isn't real and can be ignored. Same with packet loss.

If you run a continuous ping to the target instead of a traceroute (ex. ping -t 162.244.54.43) and you sometimes get >100 ms over a hundred repeated pings, then you might have an actual issue.

I see ping spikes all the time.

I'll wait for a official Shaw rep to answer thanks though.

Run a continuous WinMTR or continuous ping (ping -t 162.244.54.43), and see what your latency looks like to the final hop over a period of time. A single tracert isn't good enough for troubleshooting for this.

P.S. I am a high-level network engineer at an ISP - I do know what I am talking about, even though I am not an "official shaw rep".
