Windows 10: How to fix ping spikes

Hello,This is my first ever post so I'm not exactly sure how it works, but hopefully it will turn out good. Anyways, I've been getting massive ping spikes every 2 minutes or so, which is extremely annoying when playing video games. The ping spike lasted for about 3 second in the image, but the worst I've experienced was somewhere up to 10. I've tried a few websites in hopes of fixing it, but nothing changed. Link to the exact laptop I have: https://www.thegoodguys.com.au/lenovo-ideapad-slim-5-156-inches-i5-16gb-512gb-win-11-laptop-82fg0168au?istCompanyId=3bea4a6c-bec2-47ac-ad52-cc426c68327c&a

Dan, I gave you everything possible to try for ping spikes. Please open each link and perform the steps in it. If you need any help just ask back, but please do not skip any steps as we often find the skipped step was the fix.

You seemed to want to go back to Windows 10 so I explained how to do that if you want and still keep Windows 11. That's something for you to consider, and if you want to do it I can help you further.

But for now let's focus on the ping spikes now that I have given you every available fix for that in Windows 11.

Hi Dan. I'm Greg, 10 years awarded Windows MVP, specializing in Installation, Performance, Troubleshooting and Activation, here to help you.

You could always shrink C in Disk Mgmt and Clean Install WIndows 10 in a Dual Boot to try it on that laptop: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wiki...

This way you can decide if you want to keep it on the PC, go back and forth, use both, or use one and keep the other in reserve. If you decide you want to keep it I'll show you how to still get a free WIndows 10 license, just skip the key during intsall.

Now, here are fixes for ping spikes during gaming:
