Packet Loss When Gaming

Hi, I hope you're doing great despite the issue you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

Yes, to fix this kindly perform an extended powercycle and reset your network hardware by following the steps below:

1. Unplug the power cable from the back of the router, modem, or gateway for 5 minutes. If you have a router and a modem, unplug the power cable from both devices.

2. Press and hold the Xbox button on your console for 10 seconds or until it turns off then wait for 2 minutes before turning it on again.

3. After 5 minutes, plug the modem or gateway in first, and wait for all the lights to return to their normal state.

4. If you are using a router, plug in the router and wait for all the lights to return to their normal state.

"High packet loss" is a term used to describe a situation in which a significant number of data packets are lost or dropped when they are transmitted over a network. A packet is a small unit of data that is transmitted over a network, and packet loss occurs when some packets fail to reach their intended destination.

Packet loss can occur for a variety of reasons, including network congestion, equipment failure, and other technical issues. High packet loss can have a significant impact on network performance, leading to slow data transfer speeds, increased latency, and degraded overall network performance.

In general, a high packet loss rate is considered to be anything above 5%, although the exact threshold may vary depending on the type of network and the specific applications being used. If you are experiencing high packet loss, it is important to troubleshoot the issue and identify the underlying cause in order to improve network performance and reduce the risk of data loss.

I am having a problem with this packet loss too. 100% packet loss

@xCRx Sleepy hey hey

This can be because of Your local connection at home, if You use wireless, try to use wired, if wired try to change cable to some other. This can be because Your router CPU is loaded to 100% or router has small network buffer or outgoing packets. Or Your
line to ISP has some problems, like bad physical condition or some other issue.

So try to do what I've said first. about changing Your local connection type and cable first.
