High Latency and Packet Loss

Tuning in

Hi,

I am on Virgin Media M350 Fibre Broadband and have my Hub 3.0 set up in modem mode. I am then using pFsense as a router for my home network.

For a long time now I have been experiencing increased packet loss on my network when using video conferencing apps and gaming. It usually happens during heavy usage. The packet loss happens on WiFi and on wired connections.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this issue? It has been happening since I can remember.

Hi @gary_dexter

Any ideas from looking at the logs?

When was the hub last rebooted?

Theres a large number of post rs errors there that could just be historical data.

Or you can phone in or use the SMS service
