So i have problem with ethernet. When im connected via ethernet pages on chrome and league of legends for example load very slowly. Loading youtube for example takes time, pages load very very slowly while on WiFi its working very good pages load very fast and everything is going smoothly (only sometimes i get disconnected in games for 2-3 seconds thats why i dont want to use wifi). Ethernet in games and download speed works very good, only loading pages is the problem. So i have been switching between lan and wifi. This happened when my internet provider changed my modem. On my old modem it worked very good but i cant change back now :). Any solutions?

So hopefully I cut and paste this correctly.

Are you 100% sure these are the results from ethernet and wifi. They very much look reversed. The initial delay and random spikes is very common in wifi but not in ethernet. You almost never get 1ms on wifi either.

Also the is a difference in the IP and last hops in the path to youtube. This is a youtube load balancing thing but you have to be careful to test with the same IP even though in this case it makes no difference.
