So I just recently moved to a new house and got brand new internet and such. I switched from U-verse to Comcast Xfinity. My new router seems to be having a bit of lag issues. I play some xbox and a bit of League of Legends( Both systems are hardwired) and every 10 to 20 seconds I'll get either a ping spike or the connection interrupted sign on COD and such other games. Now when I use my phone connected to the wi-fi it works just fine so I'm not sure what the problem is. I Know pretty much nothing about networking so I don't know where to start. I tried to DMZ my xbox, reset my modem, and disable the firewall but nothing seems to work. Here's a speed test I ran on my router

Thanks for your time.

Have you tried using a Ethernet cable?

Xfinity is trash dude. I paid for a blast package which is 100 mbps. I was only getting half that. I never even paid them for their services because it was never working.

Usually for the first week your connection speed fluctuates because your ISP is testing the best connection for your area. This usually happens when you get new internet because it's switching providers over with your phone line.

Do you make sure your router is always on? Turning it off at night etc can cause speed problems.

Instead of telling us this you need to this to your provider to sort it out.

Comcast has always been bad for me. I have had them for years only because I cannot get anything else in my area.
I would much rather have anything else than Comcast.
