Re: Massive gaming ping fluctuation - I’ve tested everything
Unfortunately, I have a similar experience in Arizona. I've upgraded my router a couple times, bought my own compatible cable modem, had techs come out several times, had them rerun cable at the house, paid for the upgraded support only to tell me it's issues with the node in my area. I've had this issue for years and if there were any alternatives in my area I would have taken it a while ago.28Views3likes1CommentRe: Cox ** for games
If you have other options available in your area I'd recommend at least trying them out. I've had issues with Cox for years and pay for the higher support as well as gigablast and continually have packetloss. I've had techs come out to the house quite a few times. Have had them rerun cables, check the hardware, had them tell me that it's not an issue with our house but other issues with our area that require other techs/tickets that they have filed. I've replaced routers, bought a new cable modem, etc. None of this has resolved the issues we've had. Even just listing the issues in the forum you can see this is a consistent issue. Unfortunately, Centurylink in my area doesn't have speeds as high as Cox, otherwise I would have tried them a long time ago.7Views0likes0CommentsLag in online multiplayer games
Been having issues with online games lately (other internet apps seem fine like normal web browsing, streaming video, etc.), but games where latency and packetloss are really noticeable I can see lots of lag. Checking my cable modem logs (Motorola MB8600) I see the following warnings pretty regularly 11:33:27 Sun Jan 19 2020 Warning (5) RNG-RSP CCAP Commanded Power Exceeds Value Corresponding to the Top of the DRW;CM-MAC=00:40:36:4c:e4:45;CMTS-MAC=00:42:5a:9e:2e:3c;CM-QOS=1.1;CM-VER=3.1; 11:33:27 Sun Jan 19 2020 Warning (5) Dynamic Range Window violation Also in regards to my connection status on my cable modem, this is the following onfo: Downstream Bonded Channels Channel Lock Status Modulation Channel ID Freq.
