You've heard "WTF LAGGER" with a reply "My ping is normal its 50ms and doesn't go higher". Is it really all about Ping? Right? No, It's not.
What is jitter?
In the context of computer networks, jitter is the variation in latency as measured in the variability over time of the packet latency across a network. A network with constant latency has no variation (or jitter).[3] Packet jitter is expressed as an average of the deviation from the network mean latency. However, for this use, the term is imprecise. The standards-based term is "packet delay variation" (PDV).[4] PDV is an important quality of service factor in assessment of network performance.
Since we all understand ping, jitter should also make sense. Jitter is merely the variance in measuring successive ping tests. Zero jitter means the results were exactly the same every time, and anything above zero is the amount by which they varied. Like the other quality measurements, a lower jitter value is better. And while some jitter should be expected over the Internet, having it be a small fraction of the ping result is ideal.

It's not completely clear for me, I'll have to study this jitter.

Is this the same and ping/lag spikes?

it is the difference between your maximum ping and minimum ping in a short amount of time (the exact measurement is too complicated to be simply described). Basically, if your jitter is 10ms, then your ping will change by 10ms repeatedly, and that will cause your car to jump back and forth.

The average ping for medium should probably be a bit lower but I'm too lazy to fix it now.

my internet is the second, high ping with low jitter.
