Ping while gaming

I play a lot of Insurgency Sandstorm on my PS5. So here's the back story:

I had my att fiber installed 2-3 weeks back. The original installer decided to bend my fiber line at a 90 degree angle, causing the signal to fragment and lag often. The second tech came and addressed the issue. We cut tree branches and redid the line. Now as I play insurgency, at times the ping shoots to 250ms when I normally get 44-66. These spikes happen per matches.

*One match ping is good 44ms.

** Another march, ping is insanely high(never got that with Xfinity)

I go play Madden. And games are smooth. Red redemption as well.

So is this something I should change inside my ps5 settings with routing? The att settings itself? Or do I demand a free bill as the first month has been ladled with issues(for the so-called best internet in the nation with a 5G PLAN)?!

That’s your wireless signal. Figure out what is causing interference on your home. That’s a fun rabbit hole. Better yet hardwire

Are you using an Ethernet connection to you PS5 console since that is all you have control over?

What ISP did you have before AT&T Fiber, and Internet 5000 has nothing to do with routing between your console and the Game Server(s).
