asus rt-n66u online gaming lag

[Frederikrp]

Hi, I've bought the asus rt-n66u router some weeks ago, and i works fine i get 5-10 Mb in download speed on steam, and stable a connetion. But when i play games such as battlefield and counter strike or team fortress 2 i get stuck for some seconds every 10 second, like it's planned. It does it both on the 2.4 Ghz and the 5 Ghz network, note that in games like dying light and far cry 4 i don't get any lag, is my router defect or can i fix it? My old router played these games fine just with a higher ping, and a last thing is my 5 Ghz someway disables after a few days, so i can't connect unless i reboot.

Any help?

Did you check your MTU settings? It can vary depending on the connection and such. http://www.tp-link.us/article/?faqid=190 Look at that possibly. Also, see if there is a way to track your bandwidth using a graph (task manager) and see if there is a visible stall in bandwidth that coincides with the lag in the game.

You can see it jumps very high, i have the highest MTU possible i think, and i found out the old router know does the same with lag, so my internet have changed
