Terrible latency Hub 4

[Shakahron]

I game on PC, Windows 10 x64 over ethernet cable. Rocket League is my go to competitive game and over time the latency variation has gradually gotten worse and made the game, without exaggeration, unplayable. We're on the Gig1 package and the speeds are great, can't complain on that front and someone is usually watching video content from streaming services, but whatever effect that could have on latency I refuse to believe it could be as significant as it is.

Edit: Have tried putting the hub into modem mode with no effect.

Here is a bqm and downstream power levels:

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Interesting that you have exactly the same packet loss at the same time as me:

Hi Shakahron

Thanks for posting and welcome to the community.

I am sorry to hear of the issues with the gaming. 

I have done a system check here and all looks good. Can you do a PIN reset for me and then post some fresh stats/BQM? 

Best wishes,

[Shakahron]

Sure, I've done a pin reset and heres a link to a live graph and the downstream stats again:

Let me know if I'm missing anything. Thank you.

Upload channels data would be good also.

Hi Shakahron,

Thank you for reaching back out, apologies you are still facing the same issue, I have had another look our end and cannot see any issues at all, as your speed is good and you are not facing any issues with anything else I am really not sure what else to advise, have you checked Epics help forums to see if anyone else is facing the same issues?

Regards

Paul.

[Shakahron]

Is this maybe a case of overutilisation then? Because something is definitely wrong.

[Steven_L]

Thanks for coming back to us Shakahron, I have looked into this again and cannot see any issues with your connection and there is no sign of any congestion in your area. How has your connection been running since you posted on Friday?

Kind Regards,

Steven_L

[Shakahron]

The same as ever. Speeds are fine, but unplayable levels of latency very frequently. I'd like to add as well, this happens in all online games, not just Rocket League. Heres todays bqm and some in game networking stats from Rocket League, 3 seconds into a match, with all other devices and networking tasks disconnected.
