Constant Lag
I just brought the game off Steam. Whenever I'm in game, when deployed, I get constant lag, as if I am missing packets, with the 3 orange squares in the top left. I have no other problems with any ot...

@FlakstarI wasn't streaming while I was playing. Some people (1-3 other PCs) normally do use my network while we all play games. I or the other people on my network haven't had this problem with any other game, in the past year or more.
@twitchandoooyup only gaming shouldnt be a problem, online games dont need much bandwidth. Are your mates and you using a wired connection?
From my personal expierence lags/stutter can occour when some is watching YT/Netflix or use any other application which tends to burst their traffic ( eg browsers) or saturarted the linespeed completly ( downloads ). Such issues can be migrated with a router, which supports atleast basic QoS/traffic shaping.
Does it happens when only you use the network? If not, i would consider to buy router with QoS/TS options. Ubiquiti or if you got alot of spare money a Cisco small business router, you ll need a separte cable/xDSL/Fiber modem with PPPoE passthrough ( maybe your currrent ISP/personal device already support PPPoE pt ).
Still 1000ms TN and CFT (30s, might be related to high TN, may EA staff can answers this ) are pretty high. TN indicates network isusse, while CFT indicates PC/client issues, which might be caused by TN spikes.
- @Flakstar we all use a wired connection. I have played when it is only me using the network and still get problems.
- @twitchandooo Hm, just to be sure and rules out connection based problems, can you run a test here?

If the line got high values for jitter and latency max while the "unloaded" test, the connection/network setup is the problem. Powercyle the router/modem then. If the problem persists, call your ISP support and let them check the line.
