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 ?

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.

Depends on the situation, location and the routing within Main server and proxy server. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
