Question Really unstable ping and ping spikes with wired connection.

[Swagakaito]

So a few days ago, maybe 4 or 5 days I noticed that in my games, it was lagging every 2-5 seconds. My router is connected to a wifi box and I plug in my ethernet from the wifi box. Here are my pings from meter.net. https://snag.gy/yDaWER.jpg and https://snag.gy/qv4XYB.jpg . Please help thank you!

Thank you for the information friend and I'm happy to assist you with this issue.

Did you try resetting the router?

 

[Swagakaito]

Yes I have unplugged the power from the router several times but then 30 or 1 hour later it comes back.

 

[Swagakaito]

30 minutes* or 1 hour

Thank for the information bro, do you have any other devices connected to the networks?

 

[Swagakaito]

Yes I do i have wifi turned off but i have a laptop and a tv that are currently using the network (family members).

 

[jamalie_puran]

Okay good, well if they are doing something intensive, then it might use up alot of bandwidth which makes the network slow.

So you can try updating your network drivers.

 

[jamalie_puran]

What is the name of your router?

 

[Swagakaito]

I'm pretty sure its netgear. I'm going to see if i can update my network drivers. Btw I'm not sure if the laptop is lagging too, but the tv isnt lagging at all.

Just now in my game it went from 90 to 1000. (60-100 ping is normal for the game)
