Ive had my netgear nighthawk pro XR1000 for a few months now and I've always seemed to have an issue with random lag spikes every few minutes and I've sort of dealer with it. But now as of late, most of the devices in my house when gaming receive very high ping. Like very high ping, one ps4 had ping around 900's while the other ps4 had it in the high 500's. My lan connected pc which I have designated a static ip too, also receives high ping in the high 100's. I've also noticed my internet becomes more stable with qos disabled. Any ideas as to what can be causing the random lag spikes and high ping? I have 1 gb download and 40 upload for internet speeds. Thanks

I am home for the holidays and my family's XR700 seems to be having some problems. I have tried uploading older firmware to see if it was a firmware problem, nearly bricking it in the process until I had to do a reset twice on it via the little button. I have now reinstalled the newest firmware manually and hopefully the router can resume being normal... But even now, with it back to working, the same problem persists: Every 10 minutes or so, there will be a HUGE lag spike. I have dug up this program called WinMTR to see if it was a router problem, but I am unable to figure this out. My target for these tests is: google.com The one I ran today: |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | WinMTR statistics | | Host - % | Sent | Recv | Best | Avrg | Wrst | Last | |------------------------------------------------|------|------|------|------|------|------| | 192.168.1.1 - 1 | 1850 | 1849 | 0 | 0 | 6 | 0 | | Destination host unreachable. - 100 | 372 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | Destination host unreachable. - 1 | 1837 | 1831 | 4 | 11 | 2008 | 12 | | Destination host unreachable. - 1 | 1848 | 1845 | 4 | 7 | 2006 | 5 | | Destination host unreachable. - 1 | 1848 | 1845 | 5 | 9 | 2005 | 9 | | Destination host unreachable. - 1 | 1848 | 1845 | 4 | 7 | 2005 | 7 | | Destination host unreachable. - 1 | 1848 | 1845 | 6 | 9 | 2010 | 10 | | Destination host unreachable. - 1 | 1848 | 1845 | 4 | 7 | 2008 | 5 | | Destination host unreachable. - 1 | 1848 | 1845 | 5 | 8 | 2009 | 7 | |________________________________________________|______|______|______|______|______|______| WinMTR v0.92 GPL V2 by Appnor MSP - Fully Managed Hosting & Cloud Provider Oddly, it seems a packet was lost between my computer and the router. But the bigger problem are the wrst spikes. As you can see, the average is perfectly fine but these spikes occur every 600-800 pings in time length, and some of them time out too. Below are some older ones I ran in the past. One I left running for a very long time. |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | WinMTR statistics | | Host - % | Sent | Recv | Best | Avrg | Wrst | Last | |------------------------------------------------|------|------|------|------|------|------| | 192.168.1.1 - 1 | 17736| 17729| 0 | 0 | 3 | 0 | | Destination host unreachable. - 100 | 3563 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | Destination host unreachable. - 1 | 17716| 17698| 4 | 9 | 2015 | 9 | | Destination host unreachable. - 1 | 17715| 17697| 4 | 8 | 2013 | 6 | | Destination host unreachable. - 1 | 17712| 17693| 5 | 10 | 2015 | 5 | | Destination host unreachable. - 1 | 17713| 17695| 5 | 9 | 2014 | 6 | | Destination host unreachable. - 1 | 17715| 17697| 4 | 8 | 2013 | 7 | | Destination host unreachable. - 1 | 17713| 17695| 5 | 9 | 2015 | 7 | | Destination host unreachable. - 1 | 17713| 17695| 4 | 8 | 2013 | 8 | |________________________________________________|______|______|______|______|______|______| WinMTR v0.92 GPL V2 by Appnor MSP - Fully Managed Hosting & Cloud Provider |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | WinMTR statistics | | Host - % | Sent | Recv | Best | Avrg | Wrst | Last | |------------------------------------------------|------|------|------|------|------|------| | 192.168.1.1 - 0 | 10 | 10 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | No response from host - 100 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | | REMOVED.snmn.ca.frontiernet.net - 0 | 10 | 10 | 5 | 6 | 9 | 7 | | REMOVED.lsan.ca.frontiernet.net - 0 | 10 | 10 | 4 | 6 | 9 | 9 | | REMOVED.lsan.ca.frontiernet.net - 0 | 10 | 10 | 5 | 7 | 10 | 10 | | xx.xx.xx.xxx - 0 | 10 | 10 | 7 | 8 | 10 | 10 | | 142.250.236.213 - 0 | 10 | 10 | 5 | 6 | 9 | 9 | | 209.85.254.87 - 0 | 10 | 10 | 5 | 7 | 10 | 10 | | lax17s34-in-f14.1e100.net - 0 | 10 | 10 | 5 | 6 | 8 | 6 | |________________________________________________|______|______|______|______|______|______| WinMTR v0.92 GPL V2 by Appnor MSP - Fully Managed Hosting & Cloud Provider The last one here was ran for only a short period of time, showing that for short periods of time, the names do show up and it looks all good. Any help in resolving this problem would be greatly appreciated. I tried contacting Frontier, but their tech support basically said "Turn it off and on again? Can't troubleshoot since its not our router".
