HI Everyone,
So for the past 6-8 months I've been having a delay issue with my internet. About 6 months ago, I had perfect internet with almost 0 issue. Out of the blue, something happened in which my internet began to have a delay. My first thought was maybe my internet plan was to slow ( I had 15 down and 5 up at the time) so I upgraded to an 100 down and 40 up internet plan. It had no effect at the delay. Next I switched out both my old modem and my old router and got brand new ones. This had no effect as well. My next step was contacting my ISP (Optimum Online). I had them come to my house and replace all the lines that went from my house to the street pole on my street. This also had no effect. When I say delay, I mean a delay across all devices connected to the internet. The most noticeable cases of it are during both PC and Console gaming. For example, if im shooting at someone in a game, it wont even register what im doing until about 3-4 seconds after the fact. I've brought both my PC and my console to other internet connections and they work perfectly without problems. I really am at a lose for what my next step would be....Everytime I call my ISP and tell them about the problem, they send a tech out and he is SURE that it is my modem and just replaces it HELP!
