Title: Constant lag spikes
Post by: NomNom on January 13, 2013, 06:39:05 pm: Please tell me that someone else is having constant lag spikes on Battlefield 3. It's driving me absolutely nuts.

It started about a week ago now, I've tried restarting the router to no effect. It doesn't seem to matter what server I play on within Australia.

Currently staying over at my moms and she isn't bothered to have it sorted since it doesn't affect her. Could I still phone in and beg them to check what is wrong?

Apparently my mom has Telstra clear with a 40GB cap and free international calls, not sure what package that is..

How would I go about solving this?

I haven't had any reports that the servers are having issues.

I play on the Australian servers, but here is the tracert.

As you can see the ping is okish but I get constant lag spikes every couple of seconds. :(

No, is their any problems with the telstraclear network by any chance? can I phone in and ask for the ports to be reset or check for a line fault?

Forum admins have nothing to do with that kind of stuff, best to call them.

Sigh seems like it, was hoping to get some help here since I don't like being on the phone with isp's.

Check out my ISP help thread in the Tech section - I can be very helpful, but the fact remains this isn't the right forum for this request and it is poor etiquette to post in the wrong forum - since there are similar threads in the right forum which might have the advice you seek
