Hello,
I’m experiencing huge ping spikes during my game in the past day (random spikes a few times per minute up to 500ms), making it impossible to play, I rubber band a lot. I’ve done a Tracert using the Looking Glass and caught a result where a ping spike occurs, is this my internet provider at fault? I’ve tried flushing DNS, restarting modem, checking no downloads are being done etc. Nothing is working.

EDIT: I just want to update, it turns out my router had channel interference (I forgot to check about this). Changing my router’s channel solved my ping spike issue.
