However, if (as I suspect) it does not have that functionality, since this issue is intermittent, I would say that PingPlotter is the superior tool in this particular case.Īll that being said, this behavior has been Comcast’s fault before. I’ve never used WinMTR, so maybe it does have that functionality now, though it appears to have been last updated in 2015. Looking at WinMTR, it looks like it has no functionality to monitor and plot network activity as a function of time. I gave you one traceroute at one point in time that I chose and copied as text from a graph of all the pings/PLs from every hop over a half an hour. I didn’t use Traceroute I used PingPlotter. If we are just talking about PL, then the DDoS protection explanation makes sense to me. The early hops are all normal in terms of ping.
#Pingplotter fluctuation how to
Not sure how to fix it…Īll the high ping fluctuation is at hop 12 so it probably happens between hop 11 and hop 12, regardless of their locations.
Quite irritating.Īnyway, here is the trace route for one of the instances of packet loss, just so you can see it: But I know that I’m still getting lag spikes that cause me to lose control of my character for several seconds at a time. I’m not sure how that would have looked in game, because I can’t ping 24.105.30.129 and play at the same time, it seems.Īnyway, just letting you know what I saw. I’m not really sure if this is a problem because the packet loss doesn’t follow through to the end, but it seems weird the ping fluctuates so much there and that there were those two instances of 100% packet loss. It’s mostly around 42 ms to 50 ms, but I’ve seen it shoot up to as high 576 ms averaged over 5 seconds, and there were two significant sections of 100% packet loss at that hop over the half hour, or so, I was monitoring it. net (located in France and owned by Blizzard, according to Google). It happened once in half an hour, but it could have been a fluke. Anyway, the problem (or a similar one) is still there this morning, though I am not seeing the same packet loss on early hops I saw last night. I asked them about my modem, and they said there were no errors on it, so it was their problem. I called Comcast, and they said they were doing maintenance so, the problem would stop by late last night. Yesterday, I ran PingPlotter to google while I was playing, and I could see spikes of packet loss starting at hop 2 and hop 3 (still in the Comcast network), so I didn’t think anything was wrong with the OW servers. It doesn’t seem that bad, but I suspect that the spike is much higher than that during the time it’s actually going on.
My latency is usually somewhere between 43 to 52 ms, but it will jump to like 90 ms (averaged over a few seconds, I’m guessing).
I play on West Coast NA, and for the last couple of days, I’ve been experiencing massive lag spikes in game every 5 to 10 minutes.
