Ping Spikes with decent signal strength (5G Outdoor Hub)

endis — Sun, 27 Jul 2025 19:09:20 GMT

Hi, I've been having a pretty annoying time with the Three 5G Outdoor Hub. I recently moved and didn't have the option of going fibre, so I picked Three 5G, thinking it would be good enough for some gaming (speeds were also really good for the price).

I have a signal of 77 - 84 , and I get constant ping spikes that go well over 160 every few seconds making low latency gaming basically impossible and also making remote working impossible.

Is there anything I can do to fix this?

When I have periods with high pings I reboot the hub until I get assigned a different WAN IP address and normal <20ms pings resume.

Normally a single reboot suffices but the other night it took several attempts - typically it happened when I was attempting to join a video conference!
