Windows 10: Windows 11 Ping Spikes - One Possible Solution or Fix Found.

I have 2 laptops that recently updated to Windows 11 from Windows 10. One of them is an ACER with an Intel i5 9th Gen processor, the other is an ASUS with a AMD Ryzen 7 processor in it. After the initial update I noticed massive ping spikes coming from the Laptop with the AMD Processor. Yet the ACER with the Intel i5, wasn't haven't the ping spikes at all. About a week later Microsoft released the fix for AMD users that was supposedly identified. Even after the update, I was still seeing major consistent lag spikes every 10-15secs. If you ran the ping test for say 100 pings it might be every 1

Ping Spikes

Recently, I have discovered that I am receiving ping spikes from 200-1000 every 10 seconds or so when playing games, causing me to rubberband. However, I usually receive around 20ms in between ping spike intervals. I am using an ethernet cable that is connected
'Wi-fi Booster', which is connected to my router downstairs. I have tried multiple solutions in an attempt to fix this issue such as:

• Checking if my network adapters are outdated
• Troubleshooting my network adapters
• Changing my default DNS server to 1.1.1.1 (gives lower ping than 8.8.8.8)
• Disabling the feature where my PC would usually download updates from other computers
• Disabling OneDrive sync in Policy Group Editor

This is what it typically looks like, however it gets somewhat worse over time:

Hello Franco,

Thanks for replying. At the moment, it isn't really possible/convenient to move my entire setup downstairs to verify this. Is it possible to find a workaround?

When I used a wireless connection, I still received ping spikes, similarly to my current situation. However, ever since I have started to use the range extender + ethernet cable my download speeds have increased and my ping has stabilised, excluding the
ping spikes I have received recently.

By ethernet powerlines, did you mean something like this?

If I had known this had existed I would have bought this instead of the Range Extender haha
