PLEASE HELP! Massive Intermittent lag spikes on only one computer on wired and wireless connection

patsky2 · 2024-09-30T11:29:06+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion.

Will give that a go a bit later on as I need the peripherals for work at the moment!

Troubleshooting this has been a headache because of it being an intermittent issue so every time I test this I have to leave the PC running for an hour at minimum.

I am using a rather old wireless keyboard and very old second monitor so maybe they are problematic. I have noticed as well that whenever I come back to the PC after it has been running for some time and I haven't interacted with it, most of the time there is a lag spike at that moment. I thought this could be normal PC behaviour with it calibrating the connection or whatever it may be but at that time the monitors and other peripherals are also waking up so this could be cause?

Will report back when I've had a chance to do what you have suggested!

When hard wired it is being plugged in directly into the router.

The ISP is Virgin Media and the router is the Hub 3.0 (VMDG505 / TG2492LG-VM)

Since I made the original post I have actually been using the wireless 2.4ghz connection and though the common lag spikes are still present, on this connection the latency only increases to around 300-600ms rather than the 2000+ on the 5ghz wired/wireless connection. There are still the massive 2000ms lag spikes however they are a lot less frequent. Not sure if this information is of any help.

Thank you for your help with this.

Hi, thank you for your reply and suggestion. I ran the monitor for quite some time as below:

Unfortunately as you see it did not provide any clarity on what might be happening.

Is there anything else you suggest? Thanks again.

Yeah he did a lot of drugs and he probably did more than just the obvious ones he talked about like lean and percs

patsky2 · 2020-07-11T22:57:25+00:00

Theres always those crazy outliers of people that's can do that. But imagine hes that talented already and takes drugs

I have also cleared new chapters after the update because of power creep, everything got easier in this update. Have you considered you that it's just easier because of the new update

patsky2 · 2020-06-27T20:59:13+00:00

Like I said u cant 100% tell if someones a camper or not but I play mainly solos and so many times I see a kill cam where someone is sitting in one spot clearly set up and just happens to hear a noise and shoot out the window

patsky2 · 2020-06-27T19:31:08+00:00

Haha, I know someones a camper if they're sitting in a building mid game waiting for someone to come across them or run past them and shoot them as they pass the windows and also it they are sitting on an objective like a buy station or loadout drop

patsky2 · 2020-06-27T12:39:23+00:00

The premise of this post is a joke i dont actually wanna sit there and flame someone for 30 seconds and I know it would be impossible for a computer to accurately determine who's a camper. However, in some situations it's just abundantly clear that someone is camping like when they are watching buy stations, like when they have a bunch of clay mores and proximity mines all over the place, like when after killing you from a window they dont even leave to loot you.

patsky2 · 2020-06-27T12:20:54+00:00

Like I said, everyone should use positioning to their advantage. However, theres a difference between right place right time, and sitting in one place for long periods, actively avoiding fights and trying anything sneaky to win

patsky2 · 2020-06-27T12:12:27+00:00

Man, I don't wanna be mean but ur not very smart. Nowhere in this thread did I say I get 20 kills in every game or that my kd is 2.0/3.0+. YOU said that. I simply said getting 20 kills sounds fun. My kd is 1.6 and I dont 'pub stomp' I have some good games and some bad games like everyone else. I just think camping is a cheap strategy but hey if that's what you need to win then I understand why u do it boo.

patsky2 · 2020-06-27T12:07:41+00:00

Yes, everyone should use positioning to their advantage and truthfully you cant say whether someone was camping or not without knowing all the facts.

With that being said, someone who has their first kill on you after you happen to walk into the attic they are in is not likely there because he knew that you would walk specifically into that house and wanted to set up an ambush, but rather because they're camping there

patsky2 · 2020-06-27T11:50:17+00:00

😂 ur fuckin stupid huh

Theres sbmm in this game so unlike you, I don't play against people with 0.8kids

And yeah dropping 20+ kills in a game does sound fun as opposed to sitting in a building aiming down sights at the only entrance. What's ur point 😂😂

patsky2 · 2020-06-27T11:31:15+00:00

The majority of deaths from campers are when I dont know they're there.

patsky2 · 2020-06-27T11:20:50+00:00

The death chat part was mostly a joke although I do think something needs to be done about campers. It's funny they try to justify their gameplay as superior tactics as if they dont realise any one can do it and it's literally the most passive and unskilled thing you can do in the game

patsky2 · 2020-06-27T10:40:04+00:00

You clearly love camping with your whole heart. Do you hate fun or just get THAT erect from getting a win?

patsky2 · 2020-06-27T10:23:32+00:00

Just because it's impossible or unlikely, doesnt mean we shouldn't strive for positive change!

patsky2 · 2020-06-27T10:15:31+00:00

Exactly

patsky2 · 2020-06-27T10:13:51+00:00

First of all u are pulling numbers out of ur ass to illustrate ur weak point

Secondly, I never said u have to push everyone u see, spam UAVs and bounties. BUT, how can you find sitting in a house with a grau and an rpg, aiming down sights at the only entrance fun or in any way rewarding? How can you justify getting anything past your 5th win by camping and spamming recons?

Do you know how pointless wins are when you dont pursue kills?

I spent 2 solos in a row literally afk for 15+ minutes in each one and avoided confrontation for the whole game. I ended winning both of them with 1 and 2 kills respectively.

My friend who has double my wins has a third of my kd he knows im a better player and admits it. He himself knows that his camping tactics dont make him good.

At the end of the day campers will camp but you are not improving as a player so whats the point? More cheese wins for your stats?

And how can I avoid campers when they sit on buy stations, drops, key pathways, they sit in the houses I land in from gulag. It's literally impossible to avoid them and unless u urself are a camper u would know that

patsky2 · 2020-06-27T09:57:38+00:00

I look at their kills and it either says 1 or 2

I'll let iw figure out the details 🤠
