Run a continuous ping to your router in the background on cmd

ping 192.168.0.1 -t
If 192.168.0.1 isn't your router's gateway, find it by running ipconfig and pinging the given 'Default Gateway' and adding -t at the end to make it continuous

When the stuttering happens, does your ping to your router spike?
Running Smooth as of on average 8 ms
 
In that case it's probably a routing issue from your ISP to the server, the clip you provided indicates packet loss (network issue)

You could try seeing if this is an internet issue altogether by perhaps running a continuous ping to 8.8.8.8 in the background too, although if restarting your router and getting assigned a new ip doesn't fix your issue I'd suggest using a vpn. If you are going to use a vpn I suggest going with Mullvad, and yes you're allowed to use a vpn on the server

That just looks like server side, not player side.
The server tends to do this a bit during a high pop.

This sort of stuttering never happens to me, even when the server is at 128
 
In addition to what @Exana said, you could also try (contingent on your ISP) manually setting your DNS to one other than that prescribed by your ISP.

A few publicly available options are: Google, Cloudflare, OpenDNS, Cisco Umbrella and Control D.

I personally use Cloudflare's. If you aren't able to do it in your router (which would set it for all connected devices that have Automatic DNS enabled) then you can set it for just your computer: https://one.one.one.one/dns/

+1 but i recommend the command
Code:
ping www.google.com -t

 
To me it's very clear you're suffering from a packet issue. All of the above recommended solutions, apart from updating drivers, are useless and are not going to fix your issue. While the above replies are ofcourse ment in good faith, changing your DNS or disabling controller input for garry's mod are very silly suggestions...

What is happening is that for a short duration you are not receiving any incoming packets, while you are sending them(see the in and out on your net_graph. There can be many reasons why you're losing packets. Some can even be out of your control.

It appears you're on Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi is inherently unreliable. Your current issue can be explained by a neighbour turning on his microwave, a guy firing up his Drone 5 miles away or a satalite transmitting data. That's besides the dozens of devices in your home sending a signal every second that they still exist while your computer is scanning all of those signals every minute or so. Wi-Fi by design sucks ass for Time-sensitive applications.


I don't know your setup but if you're on Wi-Fi and using any OEM onboard hardware you are fucked. Even if this only just recently started occuring get a cable. you can get a powerline adapter if you are unable to run a cable but they are also not without issues.

You could mitigate your current issues by disabling autoconfig on your Wi-Fi adapter.

Archive. My packet loss issue is gone however no suggestion here to fix it did not work. It was just over time it improved.
It's going to happen again as soon as the cause returns.

I think I will just leave it. I would also want this channel archived. Non of the help given by members of the perpheads community made an impact on my problem but was helpful at least.

Overtime is became better.

Archive channel please.
