Good morning! I noticed you're streaming on Twitch and are puzzled by the high ping you're experiencing. With your current settings—10mb download, 7mb upload over Ethernet at around 2700bitrate for 616p60fps—it seems you're using optimal configurations. The increased latency you're seeing could be due to factors beyond just your router, such as the performance of your downstream and upstream connections. Your average ping to Frankfurt is around 180ms during gameplay, but it spikes to 240-260ms when streaming. This suggests network conditions during streaming might be less stable than during regular browsing.
You're seeing speeds around 1.3 Megabytes per second for downloads and 0.9 Megabytes per second for uploads. I don't remember your current settings, but lowering the bitrate to roughly 750 might help. Try a test stream and let me know if it improves things. It's possible the streaming app is expecting Kilobyte/s instead of the standard Kilobit/s format.
