  • 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.

If the router is one room over just drill a hole through the wall and run cat6 through the wall. No need for below the house.

I use these (spiders under my house too :<):

If you own the house, there are cable runs that replace the quarter round molding (and there is often extra space in the space between the wall and flooring) so it's entirely out of sight.
