Intermittent Lag/Rubber-Banding when Online Gaming
Hello Comcast forums,
After lurking for a while and trying to troubleshoot this issue on my own, I thought I should post and see what the experts here have to say. So, this has been a long standing issue with my home network. I used to have an old Arris modem from Xfinity and a router from Synology, and I just recently switched to an all-in-one Gateway from Xfinity. I'm on the 200 mbps plan, so I don't think I have any worries there. I currently play on a wireless connection, which I know would be an obvious solution, however it is difficult to be wired with my current housing layout.
Now that everything's laid out, I'll give some context to my issue. In the past few months when gaming online with my brother who lives with me, he had always experienced this sort of lag. Nothing obvious tipped us off to what would be the fix, so he just kind of grinned and beared it. I never had these problems, so I assumed it was something with his PC (we both built our own) and/or wireless adapter. Anyways, the Gateway was recently giving us problems, so we had a Tech come out and work on it. Everything looked fine according to what he said, apart from the end of one of the cables outside in our box that the casing had cracked due to the cold winters we experience where we live. He replaced the end, restarted the Gateway, and went on his merry way.
When gaming with my brother later that night, I too began to experience the same lag he had been describing for so long. It's really frustrating, especially when I just had a tech out and there are still problems. As I mentioned in the start of my post, I did some of my own research, so as such I found the vast troubleshooting articles posted by Xfinity; I will post the connection specs below:

Not sure how (and/or if) this is helpful to you all, but I would really appreciate some help with my connection troubles! Also, let me know if I can run any more diagnostics that would be helpful to you all. Thanks!
