my ping will be fine, then after around 30 minutes spent ingame my ping will rapidly climb higher and higher until the game is completely unplayable - once i tab out to check my ping/dl speed, after 2-3 seconds both will drop to their normal rate, and once i tab back in itll instantly start climbing again

this happens with every single other (multiplayer) game i play, i have nothing running in the background while im playing other than discord or mumble,

help me

Does it stay high if you quit one game and then quickly start a different one or it ramps up for 30 mins again?

Fireyaynosonce i tab out to check my ping/dl speed, after 2-3 seconds both will drop to their normal ratedoes that mean that your download rate is high while playing, so youre actually downloading so much that you block the rest of the packets?

yeah i guess since its fine as long as im tabbed out

Shitty internet maybe? :thinking: Try using that program I gave you, even if just to monitor the internet usage in your house. The whole download speed thing dropping when you're tabbed out just sounds like the program has been moved to a lower priority, and so isn't requiring as much bandwidth.

If it legit is your computer fucking things up for you, there's some retarded loop DoSing you or some shit like "Hey, I just got this package from the server. I'll just send back what changed client side AND a load of other useless data to clog up the internet! Glad I could help! -network card xoxo"

Yeah, that last point is very unlikely unless you've literally got a troll virus. I've never even heard of anything that retarded though
