I am looking for any help that I can get.

When I search for games in multiplayer, I connect instantly, but I connect to random European hosts with ping above 250ms. If I join a friend in the same city and he searches, he connects to SA hosts and my ping is around 70ms.

If I search on blackout, I struggle to find any games, but if I join the friends lobby, he finds a South African server immediately.

My games NAT is open, and it shows that I am in South Africa in game. I have tried so much to connect to SA hosts/servers, but it just never does.

Any help please! This is super frustrating!
 
Speak to your isp about it. It sounds like the problem is on their end.
 
I switched off all firewalls, etc. and have tried two different brand routers. I have told them to investigate now, so let’s see what happens this week
 
Only the uncapped accounts are bound to phone numbers, if you know someone with a capped account you can try that.
 
Okay, so I tried with my mobile which gives me “Strict” NAT. And I can connect with SA people, no problem. So it must be an ISP problem...

Yip 100% isp. It's a routing issue and they can easily fix it.
Just contact them and tell them that you've tested it with other isp's and they worked perfectly.
 
Okay, so here’s an update. I’m with Afrihost. I tried using their critical care dsl details. No change. I use my MTN phone and it seems to work perfectly. They tested with Afrihost accounts at other locations and it works no problem.

The only other thing I can think is that the way black ops sorts ping, that maybe I get sorted into like a second category and then join with other people in that category of pings.
