Hi, I've been searching for the past two weeks on why my computer has been having random ping spikes, I've looked at a ton of threads here that had similar problems but they didn't help.
Whenever I chat on Discord with friends, I can hear everyone fine but my ping will spike to 5000 and I can't talk during the time, but like I said, I can hear my friends still. Same thing happens for games, I can play fine for maybe 3 minutes then it'll lag out and I'll be teleporting or I'll get disconnected from the game.
I decided maybe the modem router combo I have is faulty due to it having an Intel Puma Chip because I read that this could've been the cause, so I switched to a new modem router combo that doesn't contain it and the problem is still occurring. I've read it's possibly because of buffering but I'm not aware how one could fix that. The modem/router I'm currently using is a Motorola MG7315.
I've tried the usual stuff; disconnecting the modem, resetting it/rebooting it, tried different ethernet cords (this is happening on three different computers), tried talking to my ISP about it which is why I bought a new modem. Note that this hasn't ever happened until only recently. So, if anyone can help, that'd be great.
