The Ping Spikes

So, recently my ping has been spiking quite a lot, about every 6 pings or so as i've seen from pinging google.com through cmd.

any solutions to my problem?

Relevant Info:

Got a new 2 in 1 modem/router from twc for upgraded 30 Mbps internet, old one didn't have these problems at 15Mbps

Wifi Drivers are up to date

Router is a Techniclor TC8717T

please do help. It's a major pain in the ass to play League and some other games in skype with my friends

Oh boy. I had that two-in-one modem/router from TWC and I returned it the next day. It's horrible. Also, if you are gaming wirelessly, that might be another contributing factor.

You should buy your own modem (your bill will be lower as well :D). I recommend any of the Motorola surfboard modems, as long as they are NOT BLACK. For some reason, the black modems seem to either fail or not function with TWC's network as well (their words, not mine). My family personally has the Surfboard 6141 and we haven't had a problem yet.

P.S.- You may want to shop around a little for those modems so that you can get the best deal! I remember that I found it for 50$ at Staples.

If you do go this route, please remember that you have to actually call TWC and give them the hardware MAC address so that they can add your modem to the device whitelist. Then you are ready to rock, man!

Hope it goes well for ya :D
