Irregular Delay Increases Occur Random Latency Spikes
You’ve moved into a new apartment and noticed persistent lag during gameplay. You’ve already tried basic fixes like resetting the router, unplugging it, and testing on another network. The issue seems consistent across all networks. You followed an online guide for reducing latency but are unsure about its effectiveness or next steps. A forum thread you referenced discusses similar problems with packet loss and high latency. Your current metrics show around 5% packet loss, very low minimum latency, extremely high maximum latency over 1000ms, and average in the 70s. It might help to investigate further network configuration, consider a different router, or check for ISP-related issues.
You're roughly six meters from the router, and there are no walls blocking the view. Running Ethernet cabling might not be practical due to the room's setup.
