This has been driving me crazy for 9 months. It appears to be that my windows 10 pcs almost never have any problems, but my Win7 pcs are getting worse in terms of lag spikes.
I joined 100 meg NBN with MyRepublic a year ago and everything was perfect. After 3 months they made some change that meant I would get lag spikes causing a 5 second delay, roughly every 5 minutes.
Speedtest.net was always great, ping and tracert tests were never conclusive. After 6 months of not solving my issue, I changed to Belong internet, which was even worse from Day 1, but slightly different. The lag spikes were much more severe when I had them, but power cycling everything nearly always made it all good. Belong have been almost no help, always promising I'll get a phone call from Level 2 support, but never do. Have now reported them to Ombudsman.
But the issue gradually got worse, to the point where power cycling almost never fixes it, and by a LOT of trial and error, all seems pretty good if I only use my Windows 10 PC's, but the smaller case means I cant use my best video cards.
I have 2 brand new routers that I swap out from Belong but doesn't help. Replaced my network cables. All my PC are roughly 3ghz and 8meg RAM, 4 wired, and have about 4 devices that use WIFI.
The best evidence I get is when playing a simple Java game of Bloodbowl at fumbbl.com as it shows ping time. Generally around 300 when good, and spikes to 5000 etc when clearly has an issue. Even on a completely fresh Win7 install on SSD drive still had this issue.
I am a bit suspicious of IPv4 and IPV6 conflicts, but don't know much about these. Any advice would be much appreciated.
