Hello,
I am experiencing a strange problem that has left me stumped. After getting a new ISP and a router, I tried to connect all the devices in my household and found that when one specific computer connects to the network, it causes packet loss and ping spikes across all computers connected through wifi.
I have hard wired the problematic computer to the router and it still causes the same problem. All other computers that are on wifi are slowed and packet loss is experienced.
However when connected the problematic computer to wifi but hardwired other devices, the hardwired devices have no problem at all.
I have also tried to connect various combination of devices to make sure it isn't because of the number of devices connected and still all signs point to the problem stemming from one specific computer. What could possibly be causing it?
