WinMTR Overwatch test, big ping spikes

I’ve been getting big ping spikes recently in overwatch and I’m not sure why it’s happening. Here’s a WinMTR test I ran while playing with no background internet usage. I’m not sure what to make of it. I am connecting using ethernet. Any help with this would be appreciated.

Looks like you’re dropping packets and getting 542ms latency spikes just between your PC and router. If you’re already connected via ethernet, try swapping the cable with another known good one.

If it’s still happening it may be your router causing the issue. If the router was given to you by the ISP you may want to contact them to see if they can swap it out with their newest model offered. Make sure the firmware is updated on the router as well, and lastly you may try factory resetting the router.
