Hey,
I've been having problems with my internet for a long long time.
Basically, it's inconsistent. When i test it at speedtest.net, it gives me 5 MBPS which is what i pay for, and 1 ms jitter and 80 ms latency, which is all good honestly. I also download at 500 kb/s most of the times.
But then, with these settings, i can't watch a stream at twitch on LOW. Any stream. It stutters like hell. Same goes for youtube videos. I mean, at the highest setting (which most likely is 720p), the bitrate is 5mbps, which is exactly what i have. So if i chose that, i would understand stuttering. But on low! I'm already watching at 240p, does it really need to stutter?
Also, when i try to play a game like dota 2, the packet loss varies. When it's good, its at 0-3%, but it keeps going to 10-20%, which is unplayable. I mean, shouldn't packet loss be consistent? If i had packet loss issues, i should always have packet loss correct? But why does packet loss vary from day to day, even during business hours? I mean, when it's really late or really early, the internet is great. No packet loss. But then on peak hours, it can get to 40-50%!
And i can't even listen to music on youtube while playing, because apparently just opening a youtube video makes my ping go from 100 and 0 packet loss, to 130 and 5 packet loss. Doesn't even matter if the video is fully loaded, just having it open does that. Does any of this make sense?? I mean honestly.
I've attached some of the DSL Info. Hopefully someone can help me out.
Thanks,
Alex
