It seems I have very high pingspikes few minutes in while playing online games.

I was pinging this while ingame.
I have a wireless dongle, TP-Link Archer T2U v1 https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/download/archer-t2u/v1/#FAQs
When not in game and on server the average ping is 8ms. I have forced the dongle to use 5Ghz channel 36 so crowded channel should not be the issue. Checked on laptop the average ping is also around 8ms.
Using wired connection is not an option.
Sometimes I would ping the server before getting in the game and it seems ok around 40ms. ( yet to double check this and ping for longer time)
The high ping is not constant, but long enough for server to drop connection.
Could someone please help me solve this ? Suggest some more diagnostics I could do and software. Sadly I have no other dongle to check.
This is very weird, could it be that the dongle can't handle the bandwidth required?
Edit: I just tried the dongle on the laptop and the ping was way stable and average 2ms. Could it be something with my USB ports?
