  • I had a decent connection over wifi - occasional stutter but totally manageable.
  • Fiber internet with a high capacity wifi6 router
  • Suddenly, I get ping spikes for 10 seconds.
  • no other network activity at time that I'm playing.
  • router is one room over.
  • Only recent update is maybe a Fedora system update, or a Deadlock update.
  • Please help. I don't want to go beneath house to run cat6. It's dark and there are spiders.

Is it always exactly 10 seconds? That would sound like a timeout somewhere, maybe unrelated to WiFi. Does it occur in regular times? Maybe DNS lookups after the TTL ended and the next lookup has problems.
