Hey guys i've been having this problem for the past 4days and its still pressisting, I DO NOT LAG while browsing the internet, For example, Youtube videos load quickly, Facebook pictures, videos and everything load quickly. I even still have the same download speed (3.5mbs) the problem did not affect my download speed / upload speed. But, now im starting to lag in every game, i have like 60-50 ping for about 5secs but then i get 120 or more (PS: this is in every game) Even in teamspeak i get 120-200ping (my brother who has a laptop like me, gets 50ping in everything, he does not lag.)
I really need you guys to help me, its rlly rlly annoying, i restored my pc to a date when i didn't have this problem but it didn't help

Pc spec in case you need them (ASUS ROG G771JM): 8gb ram Nvidia gtx 860M (4gb) i7 4620HQ


(by the way, when i use the cable i get 60ping-50ping, but when i connect to the wifi without the cable i get this problem)
 
Solution
Simplest solution: use wired Ethernet.

Non-simple solution: there are a variety of reasons why your WiFi might be acting funny. Before trying to make a suggestion, I have a question. Is your brother also using wireless? And is he located closer to the wireless AP?

well, assuming that you're both playing games with good servers (i.e. COD, FIFA, etc.) there might be an issue with your wireless dongle. Try reinstalling its drivers. If that doesn't work, and you're feeling lazy, just use ethernet. I mean, wired > wireless every. single. time!
