Recurring Latency Spikes and Packet Loss During Peak Hours
Hi Xfinity Support Team,
I am experiencing recurring latency spikes and packet loss that appear to be originating within your network infrastructure and I am hoping to get this escalated to your network operations team.
The issue is significantly impacting my daily usage in the following ways:
- Video streaming pauses and buffers unexpectedly
- Microsoft Teams meetings experience lag, freezing, and audio dropouts
- General internet browsing feels sluggish and unresponsive during peak hours
Here is what my network diagnostics show:
- Normal latency baseline: ~20ms
- Peak hour latency spikes: up to 100ms (5x normal)
- Packet loss detected across multiple Comcast network hops (hops 2-7)
- Issue occurs consistently during peak hours in the morning and evenings.
- Problem has been confirmed using PingPlotter, a professional network diagnostic tool, running continuously for several hours
The data confirms the issue is not with my in-home equipment as the packet loss and latency spikes are clearly occurring at Comcast infrastructure hops. I have attached PingPlotter screenshots for your review.
I would like to schedule a technician visit during evening hours (5-7 PM) so the issue can be witnessed in real time.
Please reply and I will provide my account details via Direct Message.
Thank you.
