Hello, I'd like to ask if any of you can help me. For months now I've had problems with playing online games, especially wow, getting disconnected in spans for 10 seconds, 5 minutes, and rarely I get to play longer than half an hour without DC
I have tried out dozens of fixes and tricks but to no avail
I did find out at least that it is not wows fault
main fixes I tried:
changing compatibility modes, deleting wow folders, running without and with addons, redownloading wow,
changing power modes of most stuff to high performance and no shutting down to save power of adapters and drivers
deleting, re installing and repairing adapters and drivers, physically reseating video, ram, ethernet cards
checking temperatures, doing troubleshooting
I've also tried the pinging of servers and games that some suggest, but no tests show loss of packets nor any sort of disconnects
tried out cable-connection, usb wi-fi connection, usb wi-fi connection onto mobile hotspot (different provider) so I can rule out that my ISP company is at fault, even though I did contact them (they are really helpful) but yet, they didn't fix the problem saying their end is clean, sadly (happily?)
Tried out anti-virus programs, with and without them, firewall turned on and turned off, windows security same
I also got another pc, older model running windows 7 that doesn't get dc, but it is extremely slow so I don't plan on making it my main machine
everything else is working, for some reason only games, mainly wow, are affected, I hope I named everything tried out
my specs:
Operating System: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (10.0, Build 18363) (18362.19h1_release.190318-1202)
BIOS: 1401 (type: UEFI)
Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) X4 840 Quad Core Processor (4 CPUs), ~3.1GHz
Memory: 8192MB RAM hyperx fury ddr3
Nvidia GeForce 1050 TI (4gb)
Asus A68HM-K motherboard
running everything on SSD also tried out running from speedy HDD 1tb
tried out with a fresh download of wow old models and fresh with new models, problem persists
also tried out a fresh install of windows 10, will try win7 today, hope its up to windows problem...
