Rubberbanding GW2 Ps4
I have two Ps4's running side by side, (me and GF) and we do love this game. Some games such as team vanquish, turf takeover, Make us lag a little bit. It's kind of annoying we won't get to jump or...

Community ManagerSorry for the delay, hoping to hear this weekend was a little better than last though. Opening up ports should help regardless of uPnP. If you're still having trouble, can you upload a UO Trace result to this post so we can take a look at how your connection is reaching our servers?
Thanks for ansering back, @EA_Blueberry gives me a little bit of confidence to try again.
I did get a computer borrowed to me so that I could run some tests, I will download the UO Trace and share results later.
I have some videos of what lag looks like in my screen, but I can't share them here, (.mov) file not supported as attachment. so heres' the links
Best way to define this lag, is tinny stutters every 10-30 seconds, and every 45-60 seconds a very long, noticeable gap with input delay.
I ran some tests with the computer, did 4 different speed services, and did two tests, one with two consoles off, the other with both consoles playing online.
Both seem pretty much the same.
80 mbps download, and 8mbps upload, ping ranges from 13 ms to 35 ms. I'm wondering if maybe every so often I'll get like a really big lag spike, like maybe for a fraction of a second I have 500 mili second delay, and that causes my lag?
Another thing that might be worth mentioning was when I was running the tests, lag did get worse when playing. So maybe someone technically inclined can interpret that better?
Lag was better this weekend, but still pretty bad. I'm really hoping I can fix this, because game isn't fun anymore, I used to be better at shooting and now I teleport badly. I know how this sounds, hahah but I'm serious. It really, really sucks.
I ordered a new modem from Amazon, maybe this helps. A "Citron GCN3550"
(P.s. it's actually Hitron modem, but I confusing the name to Citron and keep forgetting to correct myself, but I'm just gonna leave it because this is the only place where it would make sense not to correct it.)
Thanks for reaching out hope we can fix this.
Here is my UO trace.
Before: Only Computer and modem connected. 100 packets
After: once both consoles are connected and playing GW2 turf take over together. 100 packets
Full Match. I left the UO trace running for 3 points in turf take over, lag spikes were bad as usual. Also worth mentioning my Ps4 pro, lags more than my GF's PS4 slim. approx 680 packets.
Please look at this and let me know if you can see any reason why we're getting lag spikes.

I don't see anything wrong with those traces. Maybe we're overlooking some basic steps, have you tried reinstalling the game on both?
Can you link me the specs or actual product link of the modem in a private message?
Game got downloaded recently. shouldn't be an issue.
This is my old modem.

This is my new one.

I just got it installed. I did a few small matches, and I think it's less laggy. I haven't had a chance to do a full lobby yet with both consoles. But this may have helped the issue.
I'll be doing more tests.
