Hello,

I have a LAN party and suddenly some of the players experienced lag. I have this graph attached.

Could you help me interpret this graph? Not sure why theres a sudden spike. And queues are being dropped even though they are priority.

Look at your gateway quality and see if you had a problem with your link at the same time.

Thank you for your reply. Could you explain a bit more?

Looks like the graph is saying you suddenly had 50Mb/s going out in your Premium Gaming queue.

If you're having latency issues, it's because your queue is too large, and if you're having drop issues, it's because your queue is full.

You have no information about how your traffic shaping is setup. What rate are you paying your ISP for(down/up), what kind of rate do you actually get, what rate do you have your interfaces set to, how stable is your rate, what traffic shaping are you using, how are you queues configured, what kind of queues are you using?

Status - RRD Graphs - Quality. I think Harvy nailed it so my suggestion is likely moot.
