Hey guys,
I've been having a problem for the past few weeks where my system would throttle it's connection to a game server (CS:GO, Dungeon Defenders 2, ect). I'll keep an average of about 50ms, then suddenly leap to over 400 for a few seconds before it settles back in, only to happen again. I'm certain that this isn't something strictly related to my network since I tried playing in the same server with my brother, who had absolutely no latency problems at the time.
I've already tried a number of tricks that other people suggested (disabling audio drivers, refitting wireless card, ect.) to no avail.
Additional information:
Q: OS?
A: Windows 10 (64 bit)
Q: Wireless card or ethernet?
A: Wireless card.
Anyone know some potential fixes for this issue?
P.S. Sorry if this is in the wrong section, first time poster here. Feel free to move this to the appropriate section.
UPDATE: I've tried a few more things in order to whittle down what could potentially be causing the issue since I posted this. I tried removing my SSD (current partition which experiences latency problems) and booted my other Windows 10 partition from my HDD (old partition). I tried testing it for the same latency problems, but found it had none, which leads me to believe that I definitely don't have anything wrong with my network card, and most likely have something the matter with my system. I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling my network drivers, but that didn't change anything. I'll most likely try making a fresh Windows 10 install on my SSD and see if it fixes the issue. I'll post the results when I have them.
