Upload speed and ping have nothing to do with eachother.
While that is technically correct, it's wrong. What you see in-game ins't your ping, unless you actually use the "ping" command, what you see is your in-game latency, which takes into account lots of things, like pakcet loss, network choke, system speed and connection speed. All of the above are affected by upload speed, so "ping" as most people think of it, is heavily affected by upload speed.
