Packet loss every 30 seconds

by ajarnderek . Updated 5 years, 2 months ago

Hi all,

I noticed I get packet loss every 30 seconds. It’s most obvious when I’m gaming. I’ve spend days researching online and nothing’s solved the issue.

I go into command and do the “ping 192.168.1.1 -n 35” command to see that indeed the connection times out every 30 seconds. The rest of the replies say

“Reply from 192.168.1.1: bytes=32 time=6ms TTL=64”

I’ve moved to different places and tried different WIFI networks with this same computer and had the same problem, so I know it’s not a problem with the network. Also I have two wifi routers, and have tested both. They both have the same problem when I do the ping test. So it may be some kind of configuration issue.

I can’t connect directly to the router because I’m in a shared wireless network. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the wireless router driver, as well as plugging/unplugging it. The issue went away when I installed some Windows updates, but then returned the next day.
if someone can lend a hand I’d appreciate it!
