    1. what modem are you connected to? 

    2. firmware on the router? 

    3. What speed to you get hardwired into the router? 

    4. define lose connection. Do devices say "connected, no internet", does the wifi stop broadcasting, does it simply disconnect and you can't reconnect? we need details of exactly whats happening since we aren't there to see it. 

  • As well as the above questions, what ping are you getting as shown by the Geo-Filter? Also what game are you playing and on what platform? Do other devices experience disconnects?

        Are those spikes shown on the game ping or on the Geo-Filter? Could you answer the questions plemans asked also please?
