Frequent latency issues on PC

Hi,

For well over a year now, I've been having frequent latency issues/jitter issues when gaming.

I have tried with 3 different situations - just using wifi with wifi card in pc, using ee booster into PC with ethernet cable, and using a Powerlink adapter.

The worst by far was the Powerlink adapter, then just wifi and then the ee booster with ethernet cable is pretty good, but in a 5 minute game of Rocket League for example, I'll still have 4-5 latency variation spikes of 200+ms.

Is anyone else having a similar problem at all with EE? It's been happening for well over a year now on my PC, and I'm confused where to turn for a solution. Sadly, I don't think an Ethernet would be possible from the main router due to the distance from the router to my PC, but I would have thought the booster into my PC would have been good enough.

I'm getting 800-+ download, 120ish upload, which is great, but I'd love smooth, consistent gameplay, with no latency issues.

Any help would be much appreciated, and I will try to answer any questions, thanks!

Hi @jayloueth7,

Welcome to the Community!

I'm sorry to hear about the trouble you're having, as this certainly isn't what we'd expect to hear.

Do you find you only have this issue with the one game, or is this happening with whatever you try?

Rach

Hi @jayloueth7
