PCE-AC68 lag spikes!

[sonic1910]

I am running a pce ac68 in my pc. it is connecting to my orbi mesh system that is connected to my fios modem.

All things are well, it connects. i get good speeds. When i game though sometimes my ping spikes. normally sits around 8-15 ping. randomly it will spike to anywhere from 300-900. I am at a loss on what to do. this PCE wireless card has some iffy drivers and trying to understand my orbi is confusing.

Perhaps try some wholesale changes to isolate the area of concern, like try using a different wireless adapter or connect directly to WiFi in the Verizon modem/gateway, if it has it.

I got this adapter thinking it could work. It was nearly 100 dollars. I can't connect to the to the FiOS router it's so out of range. Which is why I use the mesh system

Is WiFi enabled on both the Verizon gateway and the Orbi mesh system?

WiFi is turned off on the FiOS router because the mesh system takes over the wifi

Me, I'd have to eliminate or swap something around to isolate cause and affect. Someone here may have a better idea.

Can you wire to the Orbi or gateway and test it?
