QueNNch 515 Report post Posted May 11, 2014 Might be external use, someone using ur router when you don't know. Just change its password and increase security to see if you notice a change Also, changing your channel to one that is on the other side of the channel range, for example if your wifi channel is 4, then change it to 11. If it's 11 change it to 2. The compatible channel range for most devices is between 1 and 11(or maybe till 13), so if for example the region around channel 4 is used by someone else, then the nearby channels 3 and 5 are also not recommended to use. Use the channels farthest away from others such as 9, 10 or 11 (in this case). If you're still confused use a wifi analyzer app on a smartphone. Most look like this: So this is a graph of signal strength against different wifi channels (indicated by different colours). In this case I would recommend using channel 4 or maybe channel 7. These both would be the farthest possible away from other interference and would help solving lag or packet loss. Hope I helped ! EDIT: Well I just tried to ping too, found a little spike but I think it's fine, it is noticeable ingame though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also already changed the channel a few years back Well then try changing* again. And BTW the iceops dedi has been getting huge lag spikes recently which just last for a minute or two. I can confirm this because then all the players sorta cry "laaag wtf" ingame. Happened today and yesterday Like Kelm said, try pinging other addresses. *Edited Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
