  • 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.

I've had problems like this on 6GHz wifi with my Intel AX201 card. Have you tried using 2.4/5GHz only to see if you have the same behaviour?
