    Was able to pinpoint my AX58U V1 as the culprit of ping spikes during wired gaming. What to do? Spectrum Internet

    ASUS AX11000

    Hi guys, first post on SNB so bare with me. I purchased the Asus ROG AX11000 about a week ago, it is a few years old now but still up there’s as a great router. The issue I’m having is that, it’s advertised as “lower ping” but can’t really lower the ping when in an online game or under load...

    Baby ping spikes with XT8 router

    While investigating a packet loss issues (now resolved) it came to my attention that my XT8 quite frequently adds up to about 20ms to ping of the ISP gateway (using ethernet). This does not occur with another router, a Mikrotik Hap AC2. Originally I noticed this with the stock firmware, but I've...

    GT-AX11000 not happy in Wireless router mode

    Bare with me, this is a journey. Hey all, I'm in Japan, and on a 1gbps line. About 8 months ago, I've had issues with packet loss and ping spikes while gaming on the wired connection, wireless was garbage too though. And over time it got worse and worse. Mostly at night, during busy times. I...

I have no VPN active and I have smart connect enabled also my signal strength is no problem. When I first got this router...

    Ping Latency Issue with Merlin 380.70 on RT-N66U Router- any advice is appreciated

    Hi there! Like the title says, I have an N66U with 380.70 currently on it (latest supported version). Everything is working great (connectivity, range, customization is amazing) except for a ping/latency issue. If I ping google from my PC connected to the router, every 5-10 seconds it spikes to...

    RT-AC68U on 380.66 - QoS doesn't work, terrible bufferbloat

    150 Mbps Down 15 Mbps Up Suddenlink I have an AC68U and SB6183. I've tried every combination of QoS settings and even with extremely conservative bandwidth limits (even as low as 40 Mbps!) none of them seem to do anything. I start a download and ping times immediately jump from the ~20 ms range...

    Ping Spikes on Ethernet when using Merlin build from a few months ago

    I had installed Merlin on my Asus n66u a few months ago (mid September to be exact) and from time to time, I would get 100ms+ or so ping spikes from the usual 12ms while in the game I play. Oddly enough, I was on ethernet directly connected to the router. I ran a few tests back then and I came...
