From the start of having PSNET Ive had okay ping however, since the mrs is streaming netflix I cant play online (pc) at all.. as my ping goes from 20 - 150 with in a second this happens frequently. Wondering if anyone has any fixes, someone has suggested getting a new router.
Im using a wired connection to my PC and the smart TV streaming netflix is also using a wired connection.
Thanks

I'd guess that video on demand (Netflix streaming) takes precedence over pings or web-sites (gaming) - at least if your overall download speed isn't very fast.
By using wired ethernet connections you are getting the best speed possible.

You put this in ADSL broadband.
I wouldn't pay for fibre if I could get 70-80Mbits/sec on ADSL. 😃

Hi @arenshaw6,
I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing problems with your connection. I'm looking into this now and will be back in touch shortly on your other thread.
