Intermittent Lag in online game

I'm having the same issue in a post below yours HAHA what server do you play on?

Anyway, run a tracert 204.2.229.9 in your command prompt and see what you get there. Copy and post the results.

Ultros! The lag is killing me right now, i cant even do gathering. Everyone i play with seems to be fine. Looks like a local issue?

Also, here is the tracert:

I can't say for sure only cox can give us answers! GL 

Hi TiffanyR,

I have the premier package 150/10. The speedtest is below:

The upload looks like its having issues. Also, my PC has no Wifi connection, only a hardwire. So Wifi for this device would be impossible.

@jdent,

The modem is reporting good signals and I am not seeing any latency to the modem when I ping it. Is this happening with all devices in the home or just this one?

Thanks,

This issue is happening with all devices connected. It is most apparent when playing the game we both play. Video streaming applications (like netflix)  do not seem affected by any lag or reduction in quality.

2 PCs are hardwired to the modem. The lag issues in our game occur usually in the evenings. Ordinarily i would say it was the game itself and their server connections, however other friends that we play with on the same server are not having any lag issues.

Please send us an email with your full address, name, brief description/link to this thread, and a tracreoute to the game server so we can research this issue further for you.
