Using Proxy

[Art1x]

Does proxy really helps in reducing the ping for players in other places ? For example I have Singapore as main host, then I want to add US Proxy. Will it give other players who use US Proxy lesser ping ? like guys from US / Canada ?

The answer is possibly yes or no. Depends really on the routing of your so called proxy. However, proxy what it really do is hide your IP.

1 way to reduce latency on different regions is to provide a direct tunnel from 1 edge router to your server.

Do you have any idea about setting up direct tunnel ?

Some host or ISP might have routing issue with other ISP so proxy might help to reduce the latency. Depends on the situation, location and the routing within Main server and proxy server.
