i have my xr700 router configured for gaming, its been working great for quite some time. All of sudden, is started experiencing lag while gaming although latency is ok. I play warzone 2 and sometimes the latency is 30 - 40ms and while gaming i experience lag and cant play the game.
I have static IP on my ps5
static public IP on the XR700
topology diagram:
ISP device <----> XR700 <----> ps5 via ethernet
antibufferbloat configured to always at 70% with Goodput enabled.
QoS for ps5 50% of available bandwidth. I even went to setting it to 100% just to make sure social media traffic or IP TV traffic not impact the game play. still no use.
I am starting to doubt whether this is related to the latest firmware.
The gaming experience was ok for more than a year now. no change to configuration. all of sudden i started experiencing the lag since a week 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? Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router and game console. CAT6 is recommended.
Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and router been performed since last update? Be sure to restart your network in this sequence: Turn off and unplug modem. Turn off router and computers. Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect. Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect. Turn on computers and rest of network.
