today i am going for new jio fibre

[hardcore_gamer29]

Do they provide any choice in choosing router? if yes, which 1 to choose best for multiplayer gaming?

No, there's no choice. And you may need to get another router and use it with Jio router to avoid random ping spikes and packet loss when somebody else is also using the connection.

@Zuke How can I use my other router ? I heard bridge mode isn't working on jiofiber router.

 

[Skye]

@Phanindra Musinada I use it in router mode. Doesn't seem to affect much in GTA Online, but I haven't tested it with Warzone or other games like it. Works without issues with games like Valorant though.

@Zuke Any change in bufferbloat results?

 

[Rickysin]

jio bufferbloat will remain B or C unless jio fixes its backend servers. we can only do software based Qos which is sometimes buggy

 

[Skye]

@Phanindra Musinada Nope, but I was facing ping fluctuations and packet loss even when somebody was watching some movie on Prime Video or if I had some stream running on Twitch or YouTube. This was fixed after I switched to my own router and enabled QoS.

@Zuke I'm also having same ping spikes and packet loss issues while playing games on my xbox. My parents watch a lot of tv and I also sometimes watch streams on twitch and YouTube while playing online. This issue needs to be fixed ASAP. I also tried changing QoS settings in jiofiber router but there is no change.

The bufferbloating can be countered only by limiting your download speed by - 5 Mbps in your router. Example: If your plan speed is 100 Mbps, limit your download speed to 95 Mbps. If 150 Mbps then 145 Mbps and so on. Remember to keep upload speed unrestricted.

@smop It starts causing issues even at 50-60Mbps speed on 150Mbps plan.
