havinhg the same problem recently and ethernet or wifi having same issue

#

havnt had an problem running it b4 but within the last 5 days been running horrible, with packet loss spiking up super high, and causing 1-2 second delays, sometimes just freezing entirely for almost a full minute, gonna just have to cancel this i guess, 50$ is not worth having 5 or more days at a time of this happening

#

was running on wifi before, and it was running fine, then this happened, i switched to thernet and its still happening, called ISP and it says everything is fine

I have been using it for the past few weeks and randomly my packet loss will sky rocket and make it impossible for me to use it basically forcing me to not use shadow
