Hello all again,
I've been asked via twitter to post once more as my previous thread had not lead to anything ( not even a technician being dispatched because they say the problem does not exist ), but I don't think that looking at the last 10 days of BQM is arguable that there is not a ping spike problem.
Customer service won't help, neither did twitter. I really need an engineer to look into this. I'm connected to the router via Cat6a ethernet, less than 5 mt away.
this is the live BQM:

and this are the previous days:

You need to reboot your Hub and post the power levels and network log. Do not use screenshots, just copy and paste the text into several posts.

It's overutilization in your area. Switch provider and don't let them waste your time with their suggestions / engineer visits.

Your DS is very near the top of the range and two of your US channels are 16QAM, they should be 64. Usually this is noise in the circuit so VM will need to fix this for sure.
None of your BQM’s are showing over utilisation btw.
