Jitter issues via Orbi vs direct to modem
I recently replaced my Arris SB6190 modem with a Netgear CM600 due to the well publicized issues with jitter/latency on Intel's Puma 6 chipset that the SB6190 uses. One of the tools used to help ...
So inexplicably, since the morning of Monday, January 22nd I've run multiple jitter tests using dslreports.com's tools and no jitter issues are observed. The following test was done via Wi-Fi connected to Orbi on a Mid-2012 retina macbook pro running Sierra.
So I have to imagine whatever was going on was unrelated to Orbi or my Netgear CM600 cable modem. Firmware versions same on both devices since my original post, and I've changed nothing on configuration. Seeing these results across multiple macs behind my Orbi router.
I too have switched from the SB6190 to the CM600. However, I'm not having any ping issues with this configuration. Below is what is reflected when connected from my iMac via WiFi (older so not using 802.11ac)

What router are you using? Is it an Orbi? If so, what firmware version? How many satellites? What version of MacOS X on your iMac? Thanks!
