Hi,
I run a laptop, over ethernet, while gaming. I have used ThinkBroadband's BQM for a while now, but only just understood how it really works. I'm on a 200/12Mb fibre connection
Even though the BQM graph for my laptop's internet shows a consistent minimum latency around 20ms, everytime I test it at speedtest.net, my ping comes back as only 7ms. ThinkBroadband's speed tester also shows a 20ms latency. There is no packet loss. the problem has been there since i started using BQM has not arisen lately
In games I see lag/rubber banding only when connected to a higher number of other players
However, the BQM graph for the same laptop but with a different IP, an IP which i get with a VPN,doesn't show the same (not flat but very neary, 20ms minimum latency. I don't understand how i get higher latency without a VPN, or why im seeing that strangely-near 20ms baseline latency
