    Out of nowhere about 30-40 minutes ago I got a really high ping, it seems to persist on all servers I visit, won't go down, I checked if anyone else on my line was downloading anything, nope, most are asleep, one is simply browsing YouTube (common), my ping however went from my 66-166 normal to 500~900 steady, noticeable lag on my screen, also lagging others. Restarting, updating, etc hasn't changed anything.

    Curious as to what the cause could be if anyone might know, I also tried on empty servers, and get 500-700 ping. Will attempt to restart my modem if it persists but have been avoiding it as it also restarts my TVs with my current setup.

    I dunno if this is it but with youtube it might cause high ping if its a 1080p+ vid and long or if its servral vids loading at once.

    Strange, it persisted for over an hour, and now all of a sudden it fixed itself.

    I checked everything, nothing suspicious on my network or anything.

    Wish I could rename topic to [FIXED] :)
    Done. -illu
