When i play games with the hub 5x my ping sits a 30-20 when i was on BT it was nearing 10-0 ping depending on the game but it was on ethernet for the BT if I was to get a wifi booster and sit it in d...

Routing isn't related to the cable network being decommissioned. What are you seeing high latency to? Would expect some pretty low hops followed by timeouts and some increase after, how high that is depending on where in the country you are.
That’s not what I was saying, sorry must have worded it wrong. The routing on XGSPON does have some issues. There is a certain hop to the core network that can vary, one is as low as 4-5ms, and then there’s another that I’m commonly routed through that is 10ms (almost double).
seems random when it changes, but if I go across on my BQM you can see the latency decline and stay halved, and then come back up again.
Virgin has had congestion and latency issues for a while, RFoG helped reducing the coax distance for possible interference, but wasn’t great. This is reflected in parts of their network like I said. It’s getting better; but there’s still stuff that needs to be worked on. There’s going to be old stuff floating around the network for a while, and with the rollout of more full fibre premises this should theoretically get better as virgins infrastructure improves.
Not ideal. Have a traceroute showing that?
