I have an odd internet problem when I try and play games. Web browsing is fine and on speedtest it is fine also. For example on Counterstrike if I try and buy weapons or drop weapon or even type a message I get huge delay. At the start it will be of a few seconds then it gets longer and longer until I stop waiting for it…

I have an odd internet problem when I try and play games. Web browsing is fine and on speedtest it is fine also.

For example on Counterstrike if I try and buy weapons or drop weapon or even type a message I get huge delay. At the start it will be of a few seconds then it gets longer and longer until I stop waiting for it to show up. I don't experience any packet loss.

Something similar happens in World of Warcraft, the combat log won't show up and when I try attack something it is delayed and the enemy warps all over my screen.

I've tried restarting the router and someone suggested a 15minute unplug of all phone and net connections. Also updated my firmware.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
