For the past 2 weeks+ since I updated to Windows 10 I have been experiencing absurd lag spikes whenever i play an online game, for example my connection is 6.66mbps down and 7.47 up when on a slump at the moment. Today I was playing Valorant and Rainbow Six Siege and the connection was fine up until around 3 hours into the session of Valorant my internet dies completely, i can't move, can't communicate in discord at all...Until I tab out of Valorant and my connection goes from 3000+ms and packet loss of 70~ to 20ms and 0 packet loss. I have tried to figure out whether this is just my network adapter by switching adapters and it's not the adapter. I first experienced this in Escape from tarkov however I believe it's to do with some sort of setting due to the fact that it's only when tabbed into games does my internet connection die(I can hear people in Discord but not speak back to them).
