Packet loss, high latency
Checked locally, everything working fine here, seems everybody in server has high increased latency. Not only that, but on xbox one x, it seems you get killed in one frame alot, by what feels ...
Just started getting this issue again recently the last couple weeks on PC. High (red) packet loss and triple normal ping ONLY in Battlefield. Any server.
.
I tried other games and had no problems.
So I reinstalled, no luck.
Speed tests are all great looking on every speed test I could find.
I even got a new coax splitter from my ISP and replaced my ethernet cable to my PC just in case.
I've tried going DMZ through my router with no luck, as well as disabling IPV6 with no luck.
You know what DID work? Running a VPN! Looks like there might be an issue connecting between my local ISP and EA servers? I don't know how it all works but it looks like I have to run a VPN to get it to work properly.
I was about to try manually forwarding ports on my router, but it looks like running the VPN works wonders using a local server. Same ping in game as normal, no lag, no more packet loss issues, etc. so I'm just gonna use that as my "fix."
