When I'm playing league, some champions require me to hold an ability to empower it. However, for some unknown reason, it sometimes releases immediately, as if I tapped it, when I clearly hold it. I have no clue what is causing this. This has happened with the W and the E key. I have a mechanical keyboard (redragon k552 with red LEDs I think) which has anti-ghosting so I don't think pressing too many keys is the issue here.

@Kilrah Good idea, I'll test that.

@PorkishPig Thanks, I'll try that out.

@Kilrah My guess would be that it's a program doing that, I just don't know which one it is. It's also quite inconvenient so I don't know which program would want to do that.

This has been happening since a couple of months, have no idea what is causing this, I'll link a video (do not mind my mess). This happens everytime I login into my computer account. VID_20200701_213438.mp4

@beersykins Oh hey sorry for the very late answer, I'm currently using this wireless network adapter and this powerline adapter, although I use wireless most of the times (For some reason, when I connect using the powerline adapter, it always chooses the 2.4G one over the 5G, so I use Wireless most of the time, although there isn't much difference while gaming). My pc is in the basement and my router is on the first floor, I don't think that's the problem tho. As I said in previous posts, the wifi suddenly gets worse at 12:00 PM exact, goes from 44 constant ping to spikes of 100+ in League. This was happening before the COVID-19 outbreak, so I don't think it is the main problem here.

@Donut417 this issue started before the crisis, so I doubt it's what's causing it.

@Windows7ge That sure sucks. I'll call the company in question, doubt that'll do anything tho. Thank you for the explanation.

@Windows7ge But is that legal? My parents paid for a plan that they expected to be decent, but the Internet they provide makes it so it's completely unplayable. They're paying for a wifi that is at a decent state for hours we're not even awake (wifi gets better at around midnight), so we basically get bad wifi for over 12 hours and decent wifi for 3 hours (considering the average wake up hour).

I'm aware of the slower internet speed during the night because of the large number of online users, but is it normal for my Internet to suddenly spike at a specific time? My current internet provider is CIK telecom, a Canadian Internet provider, and the reviews are pretty bad. I don't know the exact time my wifi gets worse because it changed (it was exactly 5:30 PM before), but it's probably around noon. It's currently 12:18 PM, and my ping is around 100. 30 min. ago it was constant 47. My friend uses the same internet provider and his internet gets significantly worse at the same time as it does for me. I'm not sure if this is normal, but if it is, what would be the reason for that? Very frustrated and confused about it.

Hmm, okay, thanks for your insight. I'll probably just try to change my pc location and find a better port to connect my powerline adapter or try out a network adapter.

Do you still think that buying a decent network adapter or wifi extender would be okay for gaming since my connection can't really get any worse anyway?

I think I did not express myself well, I meant that I'm currently using a Powerline adapter to get wired network because that was the first thing I thought of before buying my PC and I heard that wired network is more consistent than wireless. I will try to find another outlet to plug my powerline adapter into.

Hello, I'm currently using a powerline adapter (the TP-Link TL-PA4010KIT AV600 Nano Powerline Adapter Starter Kit, to get wifi on my desktop with CIK Telecom, a Canadian internet provider. I've been using this powerline adapter since July 2018, and I haven't had any significant problems with it until a few weeks ago, when my ping in League of Legends during the evening suddenly spiked to 80-100 (from the usual 45). I'm not sure of the exact cause, I thought it was maybe because of the bad location of my powerline adapter (there has always been a red signal on it), but I didn't think too much about it and just didn't play as much League during the evening, but Christmas vacations are coming and I'm still getting this issue. I was wondering what I should do to have a more steady ping except from changing Internet provider, which I may consider if my ping keeps on spiking during the evening. I'm not an expert on Network in general, but I've heard of Network adapters, wifi extender, using a 50 ft long cable (don't think my parents would appreciate that though). There are probably some other options but as I said, I don't know much about Network. I know Network adapters serve to make you connect to a wifi wirelessly, but at the cost of consistency, and wifi extenders are self-explanatory, they extend your wifi, but that's all I know. Thank you for the people who send me recommandations!

@lee32uk What about the MSI b350 Tomawhawk? 20$ less and still ATX
