Hello, i live in Portugal for a long time now, my internet is kind of slow but it does the job for my needs. I get around 310kB/s download speed and 30kB/s upload.
The thing is i like to play CS:S quite a bit with my friends, mostly on the evenings and afternoons. No issues during the afternoon, no1 else than me is actualy using the internet, as soon as my mother comes home she starts playing those small facebook games like puzzles, and i dont want to turn the internet off or anything because i can't play, everytime someone in the house loads a website or anything the ping spikes alot. I thought it could have been using the whole bandwidth all at once in 1 second to load a certain page making me lag so i tried installing NetLimiter on each computer.
I limited each computer to 15 upload and 100download (kB) for testing, the only thing that did was actualy lower the actual ping spike, but make it last longer, in other words
instead of 700ms for 4 seconds it would be 400 for 6 for example.
pinging to google.com without a single bit of usage on my internet doesnt show any problems with the line or anything, it was completely fine. just happens when someone acesses the internet.
I opened up a youtube video , started pinging to my router, and didnt show any signs of lag there, always <1, also scanned my pc with avg, malware bytes(only found popups but didnt help at all with removing them)
basicaly i get ping spikes everytime theres some kind of internet usage like website loading, downloading, and even uploading.
Is there anything i could do?
Thanks for reading and sorry for the wall of text hehe
EDIT: forgot to mention, i have a adb router that doesnt seem to have qos settings or anything like that, and second thing is, even if
im the only one using the internet, i open a website and ping spikes on the command prompt ( ping google.com)
