latency

I have an online multiplayer game I like to play, obviously there will always be some fluctuation, but it seems like latency fluctuates more than I would expect. I have a cable modem in passthrough mode to my RT-AX88U and I have tried QoS off and on and various settings and always felt like...

Hello everyone, I have seen many posts regarding very high or 100% cpu usage on asus routers, however I haven't found any posts regarding 0% cpu usage? Lately I've been having more latency while gaming and one of the things I have noticed is that my router has all 4 cores at 0% with about 15...

Hi all, I’ve noticed that the latency of my BE98 is consistently higher than my previous AXE11000. With my AXE11000, the ping is usually at 7ms to the nearest server at both 5GHz and 6GHz. But with the BE98, I get 7-8ms on 6GHz, 8ms on 5G-1, and 9ms on 5G-2 most of the time with the same server...

Hello team! Total noob here so please forgive me if I say something stupid :rolleyes: I've been running OpenVPN Klient from NordVPN on my Asus GT-AX11000 router for some time now and keep getting latency issues randomly but regularly - simple pings to google.com dropping, for example, response...

So I recently made a thread asking about to discuss QOS options with my RT-AC66U_B1. I've had it about 18 months, did only basic research on it and the person I purchased it from (eBay) already installed Merlin on it. Didn't use bufferbloat tests back then, tried Traditional QOS and Bandwidth...

Setup details are attached. I'm running an AX88U + AC66U-B1 AiMesh combo. The AC66U is in my room with a 1G ethernet backhaul, I mainly use an MBA 2020 in the room and I've been noticing some issues with the 66U which don't seem to be there on the 88U in the living room. Typical conditions on...

Good afternoon! First of all i want to say sorry for my english because it isnt my native language. As the title says, I would like to ask your advice to improve the latency of my connection. I have decided to change the router + ONT HGU GPT-2541GNAC of my ISP (Movistar Spain) precisely...

Recently I noticed an increase of about 50ms in ping to WAN addresses. Connected direct to a cable modem ping rates are normal for my geographic area. Going through the router, basic configuration, no Qos, etc., the latency is 50ms more. This just started happening. I have changed routers...

I need to do some testing and am wondering if there is a way to increase my latency or simulate high latency? Open to doing this in Merlin or in a Merlin addon? I saw a post about leveraging VMs to do this but hoping to do something on the router. Happy if it affects everything short term or...

The issue is that latency will increase and some packet loss will creep in, visible in a traceroute. Other PCs on the network don't experience the issue. Windows 10 PC AMD Ryzen 7 3700X Asus Prime X570-Pro/CSM AM4 ATX Motherboard I have swapped in another wireless adapter in case it had an...

Hi all I've spent a week tracking down a VERY annoying problem. Every few seconds, my WiFi (any band/channel) on my desktop computer encounters packet loss or high latency. Here is a screenshot pinging my default gateway: I used to get 1-2 ms all day long, but, recently this has started...

Hello, I play games and have been trying to minimize my network's latency to improve this experience. Also, I am hosing a LAN party soon where my network will have to support eight computers, so I have a bit of pressure on my to provide a good "low latency" experience, and my time is running...

Trying to wrap my head around this one. AiMesh router: AC-5300 AiMesh node: AC-68U Firmware current on both: 3.0.0.4.384_45149 I've been seeing latency spikes (300-900ms) every 10 seconds or so on the 2.4GHz network. If I switch to one of the 5GHz networks it goes away. So, like a good (or...

I'm in a situation with temporary housing where I am flatting, and can't really expect to be able to connect an ethernet cable from my PC to the router, especially when the room im renting is at the opposite end of the house. So I need to use WiFi, which isn't good for gaming, but will buy a...

I have an Asus AC87R with firmware version 3.0.0.4.380_7743 (latest as when I posted). At times my internet becomes extremely slow and I cannot figure the root cause. When I am connected on the 5Ghz band and from a inSSIDer network survey I am the only network transmitting on that channel, the...

I had installed Merlin on my Asus n66u a few months ago (mid September to be exact) and from time to time, I would get 100ms+ or so ping spikes from the usual 12ms while in the game I play. Oddly enough, I was on ethernet directly connected to the router. I ran a few tests back then and I came...

Hello everybody! I am new to this forum and i hope i can contribute in some way! :D I have a total asus wifi combo: RT-AC68U + PCE-AC68. Let me explain the issue: I have a lot of devices at home, but basically it is configured for everything to be in 2.4Ghz and two gaming pc on 5GHz. The...
