Firstly, don't show your IP, since that screenshot most likely contains your IP.

I copied what you said though, since it's so much.

Hello, these past few days I have been experiencing a series of problems with streaming performance, and to be honest, I don't really know what to do.

Since I finally upgraded to fiber optic, I decided to give GeForce Now another try. During the first day, the performance was excellent: 1080p at 60 FPS with a latency of 16-18 ms while connected to the US Southeast server (527.28 miles away).

However, over the days, the performance worsened, sometimes reaching a latency of 45 ms. This persisted for a while.

Yesterday, I discovered that if I connected and disconnected from the Cloudflare VPN during the session loading, I could achieve a latency of 16 ms (like the first day), although sometimes there was significant packet loss.

Today, the problem worsened because the VPN method no longer seems to work, and now I'm getting a latency of up to 60 ms.

Interestingly, when testing with the next closest servers, US South (882.34 miles) and US Central (1,009.96 miles), I still got very similar latency among the three, around 50 ms.

Honestly, I don't really know what to do or if there's anything I can do. At the very least, I would like to understand what the problem is.

Attached is a screenshot of two traceroute tests to np-mia-03. The results above are from a test I did when I wasn't experiencing latency issues.

With the latency, it can vary on the time of day alongside how you're connected to the internet and what servers your connecting to.

What servers are you connecting to, how are you connected to the internet and what's the time when the latency spikes up.

Damn, I forgot to censor the screenshot, tysm @abstract sail

I'm using a 5GHz WiFi network. The latency issues are very inconsistent, sometimes it's fine in the afternoons, and other times it's not.

Yesterday, I had no luck in the afternoon but it was fine late at night.

I usually connect to the US Southeast servers (MIA-02 and 03) as they are the closest to my location and recommended by Nvidia.
