  1. im literally losing my mind here my friends play an MMO from teh same city with no problems, but I rubber-band only when someone streams video... im on a mesh network, and I got this:

    Network & internet

    Network & internet
    Wi-Fi  •  HomeNet_5G
    No internet, secured
    
    Connected, but nothing loads. Troubleshoot problems?
    

    im ready to call my ISP, but i wanna be sure its not my own setup first.

    Id like to collect some real data before i call support, sooo they cant just tell me to restart the router again. What should i measure?

  3. oh ive been there lol if problems happen when others stream video, enable SQM or QoS on your router if it supports it.. 😅 bufferbloat is a common cause of lag when the connection is busy even tho speed tests look fine.

  4. oh ive been there lol update your network adapter driver from the motherboard or laptop maker and disable power saving: in Device Manager, open the adapter's Power Management tab and uncheck 'Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power'. worked for me anyway 🤷
