Rerouting occuring causing random disconnects from VPN
Since the problem arose, I have done all the things one would do to eliminate equipment failure. In tracking my latency, I have found that the baseline ping changes from before and after each disconnect. From a streaming/video game perspective the VPN seems to disconnect when the latency spikes too high during these reroutes. Otherwise, I simply experience a brief stop in downloading or rubber banding in the video game. Each reroute is causing anywhere from 3 to 20 seconds of latency. During peak hours when these disconnects/reroutes are regularly changing, the VPN offers a faster latency than not as comcast is routing me all over the country for some connections and not for others. I am by no means a network engineer but I can only assume that this poor service is due to the routing of the first 4-7 hops of my connection. Is there anything I can do to get this fixed because the quality of the connection is just simply intolerable? The last thing I need is a tech to show up to my house and shrug saying there's nothing they can find wrong again.

Good morning user_9smtxj, thank you so much for taking the time and reaching out here via our Xfinity Forums! Can you provide any traceroute logs that show which hops these drops are occurring on, specifically? This will help immensely in trying to root out the source of these inconsistent issues.
