Packet Loss: Gaming and Cloud connections

Question

Hello Cox community:&nbsp;&nbsp;

Lately, I am getting significant packet loss when playing games (PUBG, Overwatch, Fortnite, etc).&nbsp; I've had up to 12% upload packet loss, but rarely any download packet loss.&nbsp; This packet loss is also causing frequent disconnections from my Amazon AWS instances, or connections to Microsoft Azure.&nbsp;

I've replaced my modem, bypassed the router, refreshed the Windows OS and re-downloaded the software.&nbsp; Today I reinstalled all the drivers, and the issue persists.&nbsp;&nbsp;

I've had a Cox technician in my home, who states everything looks good on my end.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Has anyone else found a resolution to this issue?&nbsp; It is painfully annoying.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Again, get used to this problem. It will only get worse.&nbsp;

try using the VPN called Speedify. It helps with packet loss but it gives you higher ping

Speedify kind of blows. It reduces your up and down speeds to a crippling degree and also your ping will increase - sometimes skyrocket.&nbsp;
