Latency/Packet loss while gaming.
I switched from Sky to Plusnet a few months ago and for the first month everything seemed fine but over the past month or two I've noticed what I believe to be is packet loss. Every so of often there will be a delay with movement or an action whilst gaming.
I've tried everything on my end and I'm always on ethernet so it's not down to wi-fi. I've disabled wi-fi and tested. I've tried multiple ethernet cables of different lengths. I've tried restarting the router. I've tried multiple computers. I've tried disconnecting everything else connected to the network. I've tried DMZ. I'm on a static IP.
My speeds are fine but it's the random spikes I keep having. What else can I try?
