Hi, I’m pretty much a linux noob, have used Ubuntu on my laptop before but just recently installed kinoite on my PC as my daily driver, so if you have a solution for this issue please give step-by-step instructions (in the simplest form you can).
I’ve been having this issue where my internet speed keeps going down to 0 B/s randomly, around once or twice per minute, which is making any voice chat or streaming next to impossible, as the connection keeps cutting out.
Things I’ve tried:
-updating to the latest kinoite version
-checking the ethernet cable with another computer, it works just fine
-restarting the router
-disabling and / or enabling IPv6 connection, it makes the issue worse
-changing the DNS server to 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8
None of these solutions have worked, and I’ve looked online and have found nobody who seems to have the same issue as me, except for some vaguely similar internet issues that stemmed from their ethernet cable or router, which I don’t believe is the case here as both work fine on other devices.
I had an ASIX USB Ethernet controller randomly drop connection without reporting it dropped (stuff would 0KB/s) Windows and Linux.
You’ll want to provide the name of your Network controller here (or the laptop name and model) to see if it has any known issues or what can be troubleshooted.
If you have different network cards around or even wifi I’d try switching the network card (some drivers/hardware do different stuff even on the same Ethernet cable).
This sounds like Quality of Service or something altering the connection somewhere, but could be router CPU being overloaded or temp-throttled by handling heavy VOIP UDP traffic or something. Starting with making sure the network adapter on your computer is ok is a good start though
