Question about ping spikes

Yeah those pings look better, so this only happens when watching twitch or streaming to twitch?

 

So think of the internet as a river, the data flows down to you as the end user. Upstream is technically anything above you on that river. For example your ISP is upstream, then the provider they get internet from (ie. Level 3 or the like in the US) is upstream of them.

 

In this case I will guess the issue is upstream of your ISP since your pings to your ISP's gateway do not show the spikes. It could be anywhere upstream from them up to and including on the server's end. If this is consistent no matter what service you are using, then most likely it is something closer to you. It is possible that the issue exists on your ISP's gateway and so could still be an issue, but then many customers not just you would be affected.

Ill message my isp and see if it brings anything this time. Thanks for your help and patience
