Having a few problems with online gaming. For a start my ping seems to be double everyone else’s I’m playing with and one guy lives out in the country. I’m currently on ps5 and wired.

That BQM looks about right for a VM connection using HFC technology.
Other players must be on FTTP or older FTTC.
In game ping fluctuating between 40 and 100 making the game near unplayable. At my wits end with this broadband actually thinking of cancelling and moving to someone else!
If you have FTTP in your area then it's a given to move from VM in HFC areas, especially for gaming.
I think it’s FTTP as they had to install it fresh from the main line when installing mine a few years ago as they never installed the access point for my property.
You're playing at a disadvantage I'm afraid.
What VM Hub are you using?
Hub 4 and have the 1gig connection

Not FTTP then.
