So I don’t have any latency issues on any other game. I can stream video, play other MMOs/shooters fine. Speedtests yield up/down speeds 50Mbps and ping under 10.
Here is my tracer:

Line 1 seems… ominous. The solution so far has been to regularly restart my PC/router and that usually fixes it for a bit. This is getting REALLY old though. I did this test while I was experiencing high latency.
I also did a WinMTR and was not experiencing the latency due to my router restarting right before. (I got tired of not being able to quest due to latency). Here is the results from that:

I am so confused why this is so random, why it only seems to happen with WoW, and how I can get a 50Mbps speed on a speedtest (higher than any place I’ve lived before, where I played WoW with no latency), but still lag. I leveled two alts to 120 on BFA and had no lag, but on my priest on classic? It’s gamebreaking at times.
Note: I have tried the Leatrix latency fix, doesn’t seem to do a thing for me.
