A7000 Usb3.0 Adaptor wifi ping spikes

I had this wifi adapter for a while and I managed to fix this issue a long time ago but all of the sudden my wifi adapter stopped working as efficiently as before. I used to be able to run discord perfectly fine but now I can barely stay in the call and I notice the ping spiking to 1000 to 5000 every 10 - 20 seconds. Is there a fix? because I know this adapter used to work when I used discord and games but it stopped working yesterday on 11/16/2024 randomly

  • I have had the same issue, and just noticed it today - has there been a windows update or change since then to have caused this issue?

        My latest update is KB5046613 - what was yours? I'm going to try and uninstall to see if it works again. 

  • I've been facing the same issue since November 21.
