Constantly losing packets for 3 months on only games.

Hi, I have reached out multiple times and found this was my last option. I have had a tech come out, ran new cables, got a router, new modem.. I am still lagging. The main problem ip is at hop 7, 50.221.201.226. Looking it up I found it was a comcast address. Please help! 

I downloaded a program called pingplotter and got these results:

Hi there, @stacyc23. Thanks for reaching out to us here on the Community Forum and sorry to hear you're experiencing packet loss while playing games. Could you share what game is a problem or is it all games?

Thanks, @stacyc23. Gaming traffic should be routing to different servers for different games. Are you perhaps having any issues doing anything else like streaming or browsing? If it is all games, it would indicate an overall connection issue. If other online activities are fine, could you list specifically the games with the problem? That would help narrow things down.
