Before running the constant ping on another machine, I wanted to trace the route to all of the IPs on my laptop first, just to see if any ping spikes would arise. I tested the game's server IP, the Comcast IPs and even my own IPv4 IP. All responses were 1-20ms-- except for one hop, when I traced...

Thank you so much for your input. Needed a point in the right direction. Trying to diagnose this issue has been putting me through mental turmoil

I can't buy a VPN right now. Thank you though.

No, I had both ethernet and wifi enabled separately.

You're right, there is no big upload on any of my devices, and there usually never is. (Not sure if I can even check specific upload/download data because I don't think that's a feature within our modem, which is an xFi Gateway. Literally feels like I'm being blocked from troubleshooting.) And...

By upgrading the network, do you mean upgrading to another plan? Because I'm on their second-to-best plan (1000Mbps, Gigabit Internet). The only thing I could really pay more for is Unlimited Data, but I genuinely don't think we need more than 1.2TB. And we did happen to go +19GB over our 1.2TB...

I think I <Mod Edit> up by not showing the WinMTR results? The IP belongs to one of the game's datacenters. But it's in the Netherlands???? Did you pick that IP because that's where the high ping is? The WinMTR test showed high ping on all of Comcast's IPs as well (plus that datacenter in...

Whose control is it in? Would it be worth having a tech physically check it out? My modem, etc..

What do you mean by "well past your provider?"

I'll go ahead and describe the issue I've been having first. Suddenly started experiencing high ping spikes (300-400ms) in-game a couple weeks ago. As far as I know (since I don't have any other games I can test), this problem only occurs in Overwatch. I can browse websites and watch videos...

Yeah, I've just contacted HyperX support.

I just double-checked if the adapter has a volume control on it and it does not. My headphones do though, and it was turned all the way up. And yes, all of my volume levels are at 100 when I’m on the USB and it's STILL quiet. But when I’m using the audio jack, it’s loud enough at ~50.

Hi everyone, The HyperX Cloud Stinger S is my first gaming headset (and my second headset in general). It came with a USB adapter and just a normal 3.5mm audio jack. However, I noticed a significant volume difference between connecting the headset via the audio jack and the USB adapter. It's...

I think I have hibernation turned off! What do you mean by the pagefile?
