Regarding ping spikes whilst gaming.

Tuning in

Hi. I've had virgin media for about 3 or 4 years. For a year on and off I've been getting really bad lag spikes in certain games like rocket league, call of duty. Sometimes I can even see the issues when loading videos on YouTube or just websites. It is really weird because even when on wired connection it still happens. When I play rocket league I can be at 25 ping then for 5 or 6 seconds I go to 500 plus ping for no reason at all..... This can be on and off for the whole day most days. It has gotten to the point where I cannot play anymore. I hope somebody may have an idea. Thanks

On our wavelength

I have noticed that myself on xbox one x rocket league stuttering sometimes and flashing warning for ping.  There's also the game FUSER when I select one of the play options I get a message saying I need to have a connection to use that or if I'm playing l get the message for my rewards to be added when I have a connection,  thats with it being connected via ethernet cable and volt M500 package.

Usual request.

What Hub are you using and are you using a wired or wireless connection.

Please post your power levels and network log from the Hub.

Setup a BQM here www.thinkbroadband.com/ping and post the link to your shared graph.

Once done we can comment.

You need to setup a BQM monitor, not the speedtest.

Can you also post all the power levels from the Hub's admin pages, thanks.

 Sorry if this isn't the correct stuff. I'm not very advanced in this knowledge. Thanks
