Micro Stutters every 5 seconds on Xbox Series S

The game is literally unplayable on my console and been using wired connection as well. My ping seems to be fine but the game lags and drops frames every 5 seconds. Everytime I get into a close rang...

I've tried it and it doesn't seem to be working.

Thanks for trying. Let's see if alternate DNS settings will help. From the Xbox One screen, go to Settings > Network > Advanced settings > DNS settings > Manual. (If Settings doesn't appear on the home screen, select My Games & Apps, then Settings). From there, enter the Primary DNS as "208.67.222.222" and the Secondary DNS as "208.67.220.220". If that doesn't help, try using the google DNS servers which are: primary alt number 8.8.8.8 - secondary alt number 8.8.4.4. Let me know how it goes.

Have tried it before and now, no difference. Still having constant frame drops.

  Do you have a PC by chance? If so let’s find out how your connection is reaching our servers. Can you run a UO Trace and screenshot the results? Instructions are here. This will need to be run on a PC that's wired and on the same network you play on.

    I dont own a PC and my ping is fine.
    Its the constant frame drops and texture loss that's making it unplayable.
    FYI it doesn't happen on any other game I play.
