Hello, @DuctapeNinja.

 

Thank you for your detailed post, and welcome to our Community!

 

Ping spikes can hinder the gaming experience. I appreciate you trying different Ethernet cables and rebooting the modem. While the results posted from ping and traceroute tests are not alarming, we can further investigate this for you. Please send us a private message at @CommunityHelps. We detailed more info about our private messaging in this blog

 

Cheers,
