Well the first day I’ve really been able to play about. In previous posts I talked about ping spikes with torrents but I assumed this was to do with the fairness approach of Cake or the multiple connection nature of torrents. How it usually is: https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat?test-id=3c861818-d8ac-4f7f-9bae-dfb2dc889feb

Today I was downloading the season 3 update of Overwatch 2. I set it to a modest ~20Mbps limit as I was going to play street fighter anyway. It became apparent very quickly I was ping spiking. I closed street fighter and ran waveform: https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat?test-id=fec730b2-d28c-4be7-bd8c-127f9f672038

I’m somehow suffering from higher jitter. I can’t undertsand why. How can saturating my bandwidth in the very first show no jitter but as soon as I introduce a game update download the jitter just becomes worse to the point I fail low latency gaming. The waveform result and the ow2 download was on 2 idfferent pcs both wired into the router.

I thought it was a problem with cake so I tried traditional qos. Same sort of problem:

Traditional no load: https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat?test-id=1f7b1b66-3c47-480a-ba99-f1136c3d7f98

Traditional includes blizzard download: https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat?test-id=93322fd5-4113-49f7-a931-92211156ba78

I don’t know what to think. It doesn’t seem normal.

Share the knowledge
