Att uverse internet spikes.

Aug 21, 2018 1:23PM PDT

Later on at night wheater I am trying to play games or just read some articles I get lag spikes and my ping hits over 1000. I have reset my router a couple times as well as unplugging and re plugging ethernet and broadband cables. Any other ways i can eliminate these lag spikes or find the source of the issue?

Ill try that when i get home from work. I cant turn off the wifi because usually my girlfriend is streaming hulu or netflix to the chromecast. I havent really had issues before with me being on the computer at the same time. For awhile I was getting 30 ping while she was streaming and i was gaming so the issue has just popped up recently.

I don't expect good performance while video streaming.

What you can try is you wired and them on WiFi.
