Constant 2% Packet Loss and about 3ms jitter

Every once and a while I get random packet loss spikes that last for a time. In the screenshot provided shows that hop 6 and 8 are having packet loss.

Hello, @user_q841d9

Can you tell us what device you were using that experienced the packet loss? When this happens what troubleshooting steps have you taken? Are you using a Xfinity gateway or your own device? Is it a all-in-one device or separate modem and router? Also, does your device have quality of service settings to prioritize the internet traffic to specific devices?

The device is a Windows 11 PC. I've tried pretty much everything online to fix this and cant figure it out. I'm using my own modem & router. The Router does have QOS.

Router: NETGEAR Nighthawk XR1000

Modem: NETGEAR Nighthawk CM2000

Thank you for the context. How often is this issue occurring? Is this occurring only on the Windows 11 PC or on other devices? How long are these ping spikes lasting, and is the packet loss exclusively on the 6 and 8 hops? Are we utilizing a wired or Wi-Fi connection?

user_q841d9 Gotcha! Thank you for sharing the details. I'd like to take a look on our side, since you mentioned it started about a week ago; and go from there with a solution. Can you please send a Direct Message with your name, and service address?

The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person". Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there.
As you are typing a drop-down list appears. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list.
A "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line.
Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window 
Press Enter to send it
