gamers: which network adapter settings do you change, if any??

Update the driver if the release notes mention fixes relevant to you, or if youre on a very old version. Keep the previous one handy in case it gets worse.

hmmmm quick q any update on this?... honestly just reset the driver and save yourself teh pain ?

wait what everyone keeps saying this but nobody posts proof... try turning off the power plan first, fixed it for me idk maybe im wrong lol

been there man have u checked your latency settings? mine were reset after an update. my moms pc is officially haunted worked for me anyway 🤷

have u checked ur gaming settings? mine were reset after an update. lol this thread is gold fingers crossed 🤞

15 tabs open and chrome ate all 32GB of ram again

lol same thing happened to me for a big open-world game, the biggest latency factors are usually Wi-Fi interference, router bufferbloat and the route to the server. drivers matter less, unless a specific version has a bug... test with a wired connection first if u can.

try turning off the DNS first, fixed it for me

for me it was the fan curve... swapped it and boom, fixed good luck man!

oof to measure, run ping -t to ur router and to an outside address at the same time while playing. If teh router ping spikes too, teh issue is local (Wi-Fi/driver/interference). If only teh outside ping spikes, it's further out.

make a backup before u touch teh extension, learned that teh hard way

👍

been there man power saving on teh adapter can cause periodic spikes, in Device Manager > adapter > Properties > Power Management, untick Allow teh computer to turn off this device, and check the Advanced tab for power saving modes.

this

🙏

ugh. told my boss it would take 10 minutes. its been half the night

hmmm interrupt moderation tweaks can lower latency slightly but increase CPU usage... the difference is usually small. id only test it if youve ruled out bigger issues.

hmmmm ok i swear supercomputer is cursed any ideas??

everyone keeps saying this but nobody posts proof but hey ymmv

+1 same here fingers crossed 🤞
