Hi all,
For at least 3 years my BT internet has been amazing, I play online games in my down time (league of legends) and in the past couple of months, whenever anyone watches netflix or youtube my ping spikes drastically.
I have been in contact with BT a lot and they say that the download speed (40 mbps) and upload speed (10mbps) is good, and there is nothing wrong on their part. I have a latency of 117 which is very bad I believe. Nothing bar banning my family from using the internet is working and I am very frustrated since I pay around £140 a month for BT services. They will be sending out an engineer but having a look at similar posts on here, it is not looking good.
One issue seems to be the incredibly high packet loss I get at IP address: 185.40.65.1. Can anyone help? I am going insane
