Connection remains stable despite Ethernet use.
You're left with four main choices. First, check your home network setup—do you have a switch or another device handling bandwidth while you play? Second, look at your networking equipment—do you own a router or rely solely on your ISP? Third, consider the ISP modem; since you've replaced it, it shouldn't affect performance. Lastly, review the ISP Node information provided by Jec6613; if it's unavailable, you might see fewer pings during off-peak times.
Ping changes little with speed, otherwise my latency would be much worse
I adjusted the ISP ping to be even smaller than before—it was a first time, so I don’t need it anymore anyway.
