Black ops 3 inconsistent/laggy games


Recommended Posts

Bought the netduma xr500 three days ago been trying to learn the router an been lurking around here looking for a fix to have an amazing black ops 3 experience. I've downloaded pingplotter an on congestion(QoS) DL70%/UL70% with anti bufferbloat on always for the netduma xr500 here's my results.

An on congestion(QoS) DL100%/UL100% with anti bufferbloat is on priority traffic detected 8.8.8.8-2.thumb.png.f0b328306c14115899c95bb1c767b131.png

I wonder if my latency an ping is good

DSL reports shows I do get A's in my bufferbloat an I get A+ on jitter/Ping test an I still get very terrible games in black ops 3 I used the profile settings an the 70%/70% with congestion an my PS4 is wired connection. it goes to TP-Link TC-7610 -> Netgear XR500 -> PS4(wired) an I ping on cmd an for minimum is 21ms, Maximum 23ms, an Average is 22ms from pinging from google.com 

My ISP is SuddenLink an I live in Texas an sadly cant get any better than Suddenlink...I have 200DL/20UL But on the xr500 I have 216.52DL/21.78UL. 

Really trying to find an set up or settings to play this game for it to be enjoyable. First time posting on here so hopefully something can be done. The Dallas Texas server plays horrible for me for some reason considering im not too far from it I have 20ms-27ms.

you 2nd screenshot shows quite a few spikes and what looks like jitter. Are you gaming and doing these tests over wifi?  It maybe a good idea to run the same test without the XR500 to see what the graph looks like. I think you will find it is the same!

I recommend you contact your internet provider and show them this information. They can usually make improvements to your line. 

Let us know how you get on!

For the sake of asking. What can a isp do? On his 4th hop he is having packet loss correct? Reason I'm asking is although I returned my xr500 I did do like was requested in using ping plotter. When I set ping plotter to google and start running speed tests while the whole house is online I get spikes on the 9th hop. After that the line calms down. Funny thing is with my old router all games works fine.

The forth hop is a server that does not respond to ICMP pings and is nothing to worry about if it was true packet loss it would pass through the following hops and to the destination.

His plot as a hole is fine, the ping is steady yet high at 50ms average, myself I would ping another server to see if it is the distance from twitters server that is causing that.

@TonyBlack88 - could you try Zennon's advice please and ping a different server?

So I ping to the Dallas server that's on black ops 3, i'm 317.1 mi from Dallas so my ping is usually fluctuating between 19ms-23ms so I decided to use this on the pingplotter an here's my findings. 108_61_239_154.thumb.png.0a6627476c0bb3f1c4484b05acf9f792.png

So it seems im having abit of packet lost smh. So I changed my abit from before an it's modem(Tplink TC-7610) -> Router(XR500) <- Router(R6300 AP mode),PS4 an Computer is connected into the XR500 but it seems like the wireless connection on the 6300 in ap mode is being a hit or miss. I know I need to call the internet provider Suddenlink. But even with the wifi turned off on the XR500 it's still feels very unplayable on black ops 3 but atleast now I can see where most the problem is coming from its my connection.

So I called the my internet provider suddenlink to help with the issues i'm having, I guess i'm going to have someone come  here an show the technician whats really happening to my connection. they tried over the phone but I knew that probably wasn't going to work.

Only thing that concerns me is the latency/how my connection seems to go everywhere an the bit of packet loss i'm seeing just don't know what to actually do to fix this problem. I know black ops 3 can be a mess with it fluctuating connection(whether or not to believe the connection meter on that game idk) Hopefully black ops 4 will be better just wanted to play some good games before 4 comes out.
