I've been experiencing random lag while playing Rocket League, where my ping jumps from around 40 to 70, but it seems to escalate to over 200. I suspect packet loss might be the issue, though I haven't been able to confirm this because my Discord doesn’t lag at the same time as the game. It’s unclear if it’s a network problem or possibly a hardware issue with my computer. Calling my internet provider didn’t help either. I really need someone knowledgeable to walk me through this and help me troubleshoot. If I figure out what’s going on, you won’t be surprised. Just want some real advice, not just a joke.

No, I'm using Ethernet, but the router/Xfinity gateway is on my desk. Swapping the Ethernet cable didn't fix anything. Sorry for the delayed reply—I was taking a shower. If you're still online, I'll respond quicker and we can chat if you can assist.

I'll let you know tomorrow. It's not always consistent, so I'll need a little more observation.
