Latency flatline - game unplayable. Only POE is affected - WoW/CoD/Fortnite all run fine.
|
Long story short, I really want to play this game but I have been getting latency flatline within seconds of logging in from past few days, which basically makes this game unplayable. Here is an example of what I am talking about -
Start of flatlining after 1 min or so after logging in -  another SS to show how it just keeps on increasing, nothing works. I have to logout.  Below is the WinMTR - looks okay to me |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | WinMTR statistics | | Host - % | Sent | Recv | Best | Avrg | Wrst | Last | |------------------------------------------------|------|------|------|------|------|------| | puma7-atom.cogeco.local - 0 | 2373 | 2373 | 5 | 13 | 89 | 17 | | 10.66.128.1 - 0 | 2373 | 2373 | 7 | 13 | 82 | 12 | | 10.0.82.13 - 0 | 2373 | 2373 | 9 | 14 | 90 | 12 | | be5076.rcr21.yhm01.atlas.cogentco.com - 0 | 2373 | 2373 | 9 | 13 | 83 | 11 | | be2621.ccr31.yyz02.atlas.cogentco.com - 1 | 2370 | 2369 | 9 | 15 | 90 | 14 | | be3259.ccr21.ymq01.atlas.cogentco.com - 0 | 2373 | 2373 | 16 | 21 | 96 | 26 | | be2089.rcr21.ymq02.atlas.cogentco.com - 0 | 2373 | 2373 | 17 | 22 | 89 | 27 | | 38.140.46.2 - 0 | 2373 | 2373 | 17 | 22 | 89 | 25 | | 184.107.1.173 - 0 | 2373 | 2373 | 16 | 22 | 90 | 24 | | 107.161.71.177 - 0 | 2373 | 2373 | 15 | 20 | 85 | 32 | |________________________________________________|______|______|______|______|______|______| WinMTR v0.92 GPL V2 by Appnor MSP - Fully Managed Hosting & Cloud Provider it cant be my ISP as all other online games work like a charm with 15ms latency & zero disconnects. WTF? Edit - it is a clean Windows install, with clean PoE install. Last edited by dareqw33 on Sep 17, 2021, 5:35:24 PM Last bumped on Sep 26, 2021, 3:12:35 PM

" Well it can be your ISP because differant games = differant infrastructure and hosting partners and so on. However I would agree with you that your WinMTR looks almost fine. puma7-atom.cogeco.local - 0 | 2373 | 2373 | 5 | 13 | 89 | 17 | Are you by any chance using a WiFi connection in your home ?? If yes, then please try changing to a cable connection. What PoE gateway are you using when this happens and witch others have you tried ?? You could also try using something like Exitlag and see if that make a differance. Last edited by HanSoloDK on Sep 18, 2021, 1:47:12 AM

" Thanks - I am in Canada so trying to to connect to Canadian servers but have tried DC, Texas & Cali servers - they are a little better but it ultimatately screws itself up the same as Canadian servers (5 to 30 mins out, instead of merely seconds). I am indeed on WiFi - running ethernet is unfortunately not an option in short term because my gaming PC/office room is upstairs while modem is on ground floor :( Let me check Exitlag - had no such things were legally allowed to be used. Thanks. Anyone else had faced this & made it work through some other method, please help me out (: Edit - also tried switching between Predictive, Lockstep & Auto. No dice.

" Exitlag is just a VPN really, provided the problem isn't local to you or the server it may help a little....VPN's have always been allowed. Lockstep and predictive do not alter you getting lag/packet loss only how you feel it when playing the game. Ancestral Bond. It's a thing that does stuff. -Vipermagi

Update - I changed my ISP, this is no longer an issue. Leaving it out here to help others, especially fellow Canadians who use Cogeco.
