Re: Lag Spikes, Lag on Xbox as well Do you have any of your interfaces "hard-coded" to a particular speed/duplex? |

| I do not. I noticed something today though. I have a netgear wndr4300 and I was messing with the settings and I put my IP on a DMZ and the lag severely diminished. Any other steps I can take? |

| What kind of router? Your description sounds like a similar symptom I've heard when SPI (stateful packet inspection) is enabled. A lot times people with issues could disable this option and saw great improvement. |

That just about defeats the purpose of having a router, doesn't it? Same with disabling SPI, too, right? May as well just disable every setting in there, in that case.

| You still get some security benefits with SPI disabled. It's a nice-to-have feature, but a router probably shouldn't be your primary security implementation anyway.
Besides, it's a troubleshooting step. If turning off SPI fixes it, then you see if the router vendor has updated firmware that fixes SPI.
