Intermittent Lag Spike
Hello Everyone, I have been receiving intermittent lag spikes while browsing the web, gaming, and watching movies. This is all coming from various computers, phones, and other devices in my home. I managed to run a tracert to 8.8.8.8 (google) when this occurred and found that my latency was over 100ms. Pinging google showed the same thing as well. Any tips or help would be greatly appreciated. I am using the supplied modem from Cox, but I would like to make sure this is the problem first before replacing the modem. I have had this modem for almost 7 months and I am just now experiencing this issue.429Views0likes0CommentsLag spikes every minute or so, please help!
Since I've gotten my new router lag spikes started popping out of no where, they are VERY frequent and are very annoying, especially while playing online games. Here's a test for my ping I did a couple of minutes ago.

me, a 100 is VERY acceptable, I used to have a 100 ping before and it was normal, but the lag I'm getting in games do not feel like a 100, more like a thousand. Please help, I've tried restarting my modem but that did not work. I've also had this going on for about a week.8.8KViews0likes22Comments
