Moved into dorm recently, I'm getting huge ping spikes every couple seconds on my desktop pc, but on my laptop it's a smooth 30 ms, like it should be. I heard from another person here that he's had serious troubles with the wifi in the past, pretty much having the same issues as me, he called the ISP to come over and check it, and did multiple things to try and fix it but couldn't figure it out. These issues only happen on my desktop though, on my phone and laptop there's no issues, even when I plugged my tp-link adapter into my laptop and disabled the internal laptop wifi thing it worked like butter, so it's not my adapter either.
I also tried moving the desktop itself, for any interference, but nothing. Tried wlan optimizer, nothing changed. Before moving to this dorm I used ethernet and had no issues. I have no clue what it could be, expect hardware maybe, or some hidden setting not jiving with the internet here.
Any suggestions welcome, dunno what else to try.
Thanks

this is what pinging google looks like, these 2000+ spikes straight up disconnects me from games or cancels downloads sometimes.
