Download latency issues

I'm having significant download latency issues on my direct Ethernet wired PC which is now over 60 milliseconds, and even worse on Wi-Fi over my phone which exceeds 200 milliseconds. This is beginning to cause problems with a couple of my apps and I am desperate to find a solution.

If it helps I started with 14 millisecond download and it stayed that way for a couple of months but has gotten progressively worse. I know my next door neighbor closest to me had to get a new router as we are brand new on the network with new lines.

Hello user_7z5r3w thank you so much for taking the time to reach out regarding these latency issues!  Are you using a personal modem with these services? Are you seeing packet loss when this latency occurs? and is this a constant issue, or more intermittent?

I am using the supplied Xfinity gateway. 

This has been a constant issue for about the last 3 months. 

Not sure about packet loss how would I go about checking that?

user_7z5r3w A good place to start would be our "Tips for troubleshooting your Xfinity Internet connection article" for more information. Have you tried any of these troubleshooting steps on your end? Rebooting the equipment manually or through the Xfinity App?
