#steam disconnects/high ping every half an hour or so

if i cant find a work around by tomorrow i am going to swap to another distro because ive had too many issues with mint unfortunately
I'm 95% sure it's not the system's fault. If it were Mint's fault, most users running Steam on Linux Mint would be experiencing the same issue. Just my opinion.
I assume you've read this book https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/3e5a-cfb6-2269-d6c1
The same happened to me yesterday while I was playing earth defence force 4.1 with my boyfriend last night, I just completely closed down the game and restarted it -> that fixed the issue for me and now I sit at 1-15 ping
I am however using Ethernet though
I am also using Ethernet
I’ve installed steamOS on my second drive, gonna play around with that and some other distros
Because in my attempt to fix my Ethernet drivers, Network Manager now refuses to work and I can no longer connect to the internet (while using mint)
This should help you get back online https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-linux-renew-dhcp-client-ip-address/
This didn’t fix it unfortunately
