Surge protection

I have problem when I put my router into a surge protector my gaming is very unresponsive as soon as I remove the surge protector it is fixed. Why does surge protector not work well with router?

Re: Surge protection

I assume you are on VDSL2/FTTC and are feeding the connection from the phone socket through the surge protector.  Cheap surge protectors work well with voice and it's 8KHz signal, they're even okayish with ADSL, but all the ones I've seen kill VDSL2 to at least some degree!


I only learn by making mistakes and owning up to them - boy do I learn a lot!
