    Random Ping Spikes
    « on: April 03, 2015, 10:28:59 AM »
    I've just started using wireless again after being on wired for a long time and I am having some severe ping troubles.
    Previous to being on wired and using wireless I had no issues but now coming back to it something is wrong.

    Issue:
    Ping spikes of over 1000ms to my router at random intervals

    Pinging to my router:
    Code: [Select]

    Attempted Solutions:
    Reinstalled Drivers
    Trying different Wifi settings
    Switching between 2 and 5 GHz bands
    Factory Resetting Router
    Installing WLAN Optimizer
    Disconnecting all other wireless devices from the network
    Virus/Malware scan

    So far none of the above have worked

    OS: Windows 8.1 64 Bit
    My NIC is as http://www.asus.com/uk/Networking/PCEAC68/ , I spent a lot of money on it to make sure I would have no wireless issues but apparently that is not the case.

    Although the average ping is higher I don't actually get these incredible spikes on my phone which leads me to believe it's on my computer's end.

    Any help would be appreciated

      I have just tried using a connection analyser to see if anything was happening network-wise on my PC during the spikes but there was nothing noticeable at all. I am extremely lost on this one.
