If the other users are using Bandwidth intensive programs like streaming or downloading torrents as an example AND your ISP PIPE meaning DL & UL are insufficient those lags and spikes WILL continue.
I've asked several times for you to post a screen shot of a test which I gave up on after your last response. You unknowingly posted two identical link which USE cookies and shows a History of test MADE by who ever goes to the the site, The link shows MY history of test Not yours, because of cookies
Test again, press "FN & Prt SC" key to capture test, open paint select PASTE, Crop to include test results ONLY...insert picture in post.........................
