Virgin Media packet loss, uk area 15

★ Novice

In the last few days I have been experiencing lots of lag / rubber banding in Apex Legends on PC. In game the packet loss to every european ea server is 2% (often more):

Pinging the Apex Legends London server gives me this:

 

Ping statistics for 217.147.89.101:
    Packets: Sent = 200, Received = 198, Lost = 2 (1% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 17ms, Maximum = 30ms, Average = 19ms

and tracert gives me this:

 

tracert 217.147.89.101

I'm no expert but something is clearly not right.

 

My speeds are fine:

 



  • I am connected to the router with a Cat 7 ethernet cable
  • I have tried rebooting my router
  • I have tried the following commands on my main PC:
netsh winsock reset
netsh int ip reset
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /flushdns
  • I have disconnected all other devices from the network
  • I have made sure the cable connections are tight
  • I have run full virus scans on all PCs connected to my network
  • I have removed any other software that was using network bandwith whilst playing
  • I have reinstalled apex legends

Is this something anyone else is experiencing on Virgin Media?

 

Is this something that the Apex team are aware of?
