Issue with lag spikes during gameplay on Battlefield 1
Issue with lag spikes during gameplay on Battlefield 1
Hello! Your new gaming PC is performing okay in single-player, but you're facing issues when connecting online. The ping fluctuates wildly—dropping to around 45 and then jumping to extremely high numbers like 4609 or even 9999 ms. You've tested both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz internet, used a Netgear dongle, and switched to wired, but the problem persists. It seems the connection instability is likely due to network conditions or interference. Have you checked your router settings or considered changing your Wi-Fi channel? Let me know if you want more troubleshooting tips!
I've restarted the router and computer several times. This issue has persisted for 3 to 4 weeks.
Consider connecting an ethernet cable to your computer; this might resolve the issue since it could be unrelated. I installed 200ft of ethernet cable into my room and now experience better internet performance, with lag more tied to server distance and ISP or server load. If the problem continues, it might relate to game files—reinstalling could help.
