You recently got your first desktop and started playing games, but they’re running really slow. After checking your internet speed on Speedtest.net, you have solid numbers, so you tried using a latency tracker in-game. The ping jumped from 32ms to over 1000ms, and packet loss was consistently at 100%. You’re using a wired connection and are confused about what to do next.

Enable UPnP on your router for better connectivity. Your internet service might also need attention.

Thanks for the update. Your extra work helps clarify things. I believe there’s more happening than initially thought—random spikes around 50ms to 200-300ms are likely contributing. Appreciate your input!
