Firstly if you are taking the time to read this thank you. I also posted this on r/pcmr
So my new PC which was running beautifully until yesterday has started being weird. I'll go through the problems first and then the things which I've done to try and fix them. I'm going through the problems as I'm actually unsure of what is going on.
Symptoms:
First noticed large packet loss in League of Legends, my normal ping is around 20, it jumped to 100 and stayed there. (S5 fixed the noticeable/unplayable packet loss, and ping is now sitting at 50ish)
Youtube works fine. Netflix stutters and takes a bit longer to load than normal.. maybe. Reddit, with RES seems to be taking longer to load images. Videos do take longer to load, and then drop quality within a few seconds.
Webpages were taking a long time to load, my university page still takes a little while, but I think that is due to the third party software used for account 'security'.
Discord originally was showing normal ping but going red/orange even with normal ping. Fixed after S5
Partner's PC and phones ect don't have any delays or problems.
Treatments:
Restarted of course
Unplugged and unplugged network cables.
Turned off my port forwarding protocols.
Checked QOS
Disabled Large Send Offload V2 (IPv4) in the network adapter adv settings.
Put this into powershell as admin
netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled
Tested a new account in windows, problem seemed to remain in there.
Reset network and restarted. This caused the boot to fail, lights were on but nothing was happening. So stuck in S4, unplugged and tried to boot. Forced S5. Booted normally, this seemed to fix the packet loss.
Next day I:
Did a full powercycle of the system. Including router and both my and my partners PCs.
Updated drivers for network adapter through Device manager.
Updated motherboard BIOS (It was probably already up to date, but figured it might work)
System Information:
Setup. Modem/router is in the other room, with wifi enabled. It's a D-link DSL -4320L. A long Ethernet goes into the office. Where a TP-link Archer C20 is setup as an access point, wired from there to both PCs. Wifi turned off.
