Random lag spikes - dsfnjmgnsefdko - Jul 23, 2013
Sorry if this is in the wrong section, but recently I have been having these lag spikes that are really annoying. I have comcast internet, and I was pinging my internet to show you guys. It's perfectly fine, an average of about 2ms, then all of a sudden it up to 950ms, to 600, back to normal, then goes right up again. Do you guys know how I can fix this? I have no idea why this is happening.

Minimum, Maximum, Average

Are you on a wireless router perchance?

For the love of god... there's no retransmit AFAIK in DOCSIS3. This is a problem with 802.11(a|b|g|n). Get a better wireless setup.

DUMBASS ALERT DUMBASS ALERT SOMEONE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND TECHNOLOGY.
It's your WIFI router that's doing this. If it was comcast, you'd see full-drop on packets. Instead, you're being forced into 802.11(a|b|g|n) retransmits, which will seem like "lag spikes". It's not comcast. No matter how much you want to blame comcast, IT'S NOT FUCKING COMCAST.
Edit: Oh cool, I'm immortalized in a screenshot. HI MOM.
