Constant Lag Spikes EVERY Morning (EST)
Hey there,
So we are not seeing any widespread connection issues with the service itself, most players are playing without issue.
Time specific connection issues typically come down to connection to the service or in some cases something local to the system affecting its performance during that timeframe.
I can say there have been scattered reports from Spectrum users of various connection related issues with various games, not just Resurrected but we hadn’t seen a trend in reporting suggesting it was specific timeframes. I’m going to go and and include some connection troubleshooting, go through it and retest, if the issue persists you will want to gather some connection data to be reviewed.
Try doing an extended power cycle on your system. Turn off all devices including the modem. Wait 30 minutes, turn on the modem, wait 5 minutes, turn on any network devices, wait 2 minutes, turn on your computer and try the game.
You can try switching your DNS settings to use a free public DNS servers instead of your ISPs Servers:

The Best Free and Public DNS Servers (January 2023)
A list of the best public and completely free DNS servers, plus how to change them. This DNS server list was last updated in January 2023.
We do not have individual steps for specific modems or routers so if you need assistance accessing or updating the devices, contact the device maker/provider.
Sometimes firewall or routing software/hardware will have some advanced settings to prioritize and manage types of network traffic. Normally that is not an issue but we have seen situations where it can interfere with the delivery of the data for our games/voice chat.
Let’s try turning off these features:
QoS
SIP ALG
RoG (ASUS Routers Only)
Security firewalls (Some ISP provided modems)
Not all devices will have these options and the steps for turning these functions off will be different depending on the make/model/software version of the devices and programs involved. If necessary look at the documentation for your security and routing products to find out how to turn these options off.
