I've noticed some instability in your game connections lately. Your current setup uses an Eero mesh network without direct line of sight, and you're relying on a WiFi dongle for coverage. Over the past year and a half, your ping has fluctuated between 180-250 ms. It might help to check your router placement, ensure it's not obstructed, and consider switching to a wired connection if possible.

PCIe Wi-Fi card available, though Ethernet is more common.

They follow it too. It's unclear what impact it might have since I struggle even without them watching TV. (Three more computers are linked, but internet usage is limited.)

It really isn't that big of an issue. However, with more wireless links and a ping to the router, it could indicate the router is struggling to manage numerous simultaneous connections. Or if you're in an area with lots of 2.4GHz devices, that might cause problems.
