When pinging google on command prompt the ping rises occasionally, but when playing games like valorant the network round trip time or ping spikes up every like 2 seconds.

Just finished troubleshooting and experimenting with everything I could. The thing that was causing it was actually the power extenders! When changing the router plug into an actual outlet in the wall the wifi was great. It was lightning fast. At least I know now.

What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?

What are the ping results if you connect a wired PC to the ISP modem/ONT and use the free trial ping plotter program from pingplotter.com with out the RBR?

  When connecting to the modem everything is fine. No ping spikes or anything and I have also contacted my internet provider to see if anything was wrong on their end. Nothing. V3.2.16.6_1.4.4 is the firmware
