Hi, This is my test results from PingPlotter. Can anyone please explain, why I am recieving so much packet loss & how I am able to resolve this issue? I have pinged one of the game services...
When you do a traceroute it sends 3 packets to each hop, so it gives a time in each column for each of the packets. If a star is there then your packet didn't receive a response. It could indicate an issue in the routing but that's nothing you can fix. You're watching Netflix which is causing a network queue and so causing high ping times. You'll need to use QoS to stop that from happening.
Iam using qos tho ? And iv went onto dslreports.com and ran tests and every test came back different no matter how much I brought it up and down the sliders n
Always came back with same result and the buffer lost was an a+ so I don’t really get how to use the qos if your telling me iv done it wrong if I’m getting those results

Hi Andy
am I right in thinking you are using EE?
Are you struggling when streaming say netflix and finding latency spikes?
- Are ALL your devices connected to the router or are some connected to your ISP router? I wouldn't use DSLReports to test the connection. I would suggest you follow this guide while saturating your connection with downloads/streams and adjusting your Anti-Bufferbloat percentages on 'Always' to see what lowers the ping the most/keeps it stable.

I don't know, sounds like an unstable connection. Perhaps the data is coming in big bursts instead of a continuous stream.
