I have 1gig internet from COX. It comes into my home to my NETGEAR CM1000 modem. From there it goes into my ORBI RBR50. I plug my ps4 direclty into the orbi with the LAN cable. I recieve the same packet loss and lag spikes periodically. I seem to also recieve these same lag spikes over the wifi on my other devices. I DO have 15 devices connected to the orbi and satellite - doorbell, themostat, roomba, google minis, rokus etc. The lag spikes are so bad I cant even play games online. HELP!
