Bufferbloat on Superhub
 

Hi all.

I was playing FIFA and I noticed I was lagging a lot. This was odd because my PS5 is wired via ethernet. So I took the cable and did a speed test. I got this result:

High latency right? Apparently this is called 'bufferbloat'. I haven't heard of this before but there is a test you can and it seemed to confirm it:

These tests were conducted with my laptop plugged right into the Superhub directly. The lag is much worse than it is on wi-fi.

I have no idea what I could do to fix this. I have tried different ethernet cables and a reboot of the hub.

any ideas?

11ms is not high esp. for Cable.

Re: Bufferbloat on Superhub
 

Well it's that 'loaded' latency that seems the issue?

My buffer bloat is A doing a wireless test from the Hub5 to my tablet and it's still complaining ! For the low latency gaming part.

How did you get the first part of your results as can't see it on the site?

The first one is fast.com

My unloaded is 243ms on WiFi but I get A on bufferbloat on the other site compared to your C.

Re: Bufferbloat on Superhub
 

Fast.com says my DL is 510mbps, but I'm on the Volt 350 according to Virgin, whilst I thought I was on 200mbps?

Latency 13ms unloaded, 11ms loaded, on ethernet.

Yeah this is what I was expecting. It doesn't make sense to me it's worse on ethernet than it is on wi-fi

Re: Bufferbloat on Superhub
 

What's your download config say in the hub as volt250 customers got a boost to m350 speeds I thought?

Also M200 speeds got boosted to M250 months ago so M200 doesn't exist now.

Max Traffic Rate 402500089 :confused:

Re: Bufferbloat on Superhub
 

Not sure what it's meant to be but it's probably correct for M350.

Re: Bufferbloat on Superhub
 

402500089Bps AKA 402Mbps correct for M350
