Ping spikes and packet loss to router after update (R2.52)

[Zuke]

Hello,

Is there anyone on R2.52 version on JCOW414 ONT? It seems to have added many issues for me.

I was playing some games yesterday and was experiencing issues often. It was extremely bad in CS2 but was playable in Valorant, so I didn't mind much. I mean, there were times when Jio would work badly in some servers and less badly in the other. However, I noticed that in my PC, internet was not working properly. I did some ping tests and there was too much packet loss, while there was no packet loss in my laptop (where I was gaming). After I turned off my laptop, everything started working normally in PC.

Today, I also noticed that even with my laptop I was having ping fluctuations to the Jio router. I thought about checking the resource usage of Jio's router and saw that it was using much less resources than usual. And then I noticed it is also updated. So, I am guessing that this software version has bring the issues.

Don't rely on Jio ONTs. Buy a TP-Link one which will cost you- no more than 1k. setup everything and live a peaceful life.

@imdarkray easiest guide to setup TP-Link ont? Tia.

@imdarkray Seems like that's the only way. Their ONT seems really piece of trash considering the problems we face often.

Found it in Ltonlinestore, TP-Link XZ000-G3 (V1). V2 one is out of stock. So, should I just get this one?

There is XZ000-G7 too but saw somebody here having issues getting it work with Jio.

Yes, XZ000-G7 does not work with Jio (at least now with current firmware). I have tried all possible configs. But XZ000-G3 (V1) works just fine. Not sure about v2 though.

@krishg Hmm. By the way, it seems I have to drop the idea to use a different ONT. As far as I have read, I'll need older firmware to be able to get GPON SN but I can't downgrade my Jio ONT. It keeps saying "Firmware file is invalid or corrupt".

You can still use keyguesser to find out your encryption key of settings backup file. Then you can decrypt that, add telnet data and re-encrypt and restore to enable temporary telnet to extract your real GPON SN. Check the Successful authentication topic.
I have TP-Link XZ000-G3 V1 and if you are in Mumbai, I can sell you for ₹800. Practically Unused

@akshay71 Oh, do you have any detailed tutorial for it?

And no, I don't live in Mumbai.
