No FPS gaming possible

Separate area for niche lag issues including unexpected causes and/or electromagnetic interference (ECC = retransmits = lag). Interference (EMI, EMF) of all kinds (wired, wireless, external, internal, environment, bad component) can cause error-correction latencies like a bad modem connection. Troubleshooting may require university degree. Your lag issue is likely not EMI. Please read this before entering sub-forum.

I have a desync problem on my computer.
Yes you have, which is caused by EXTERNAL factors...how many freaking software fixes will you try before you will finally accept this? Try your computer at other house which is at leats 3+ km away and you will see, and stop trying to find a magical software fix because the problem is interference of some kind, magnetic field interference, electricity interference, radiofrequency interference, or a mixture of everything.

The only thing I can really imagine is that I have so many FEC errors on the connection that it's causing these problems.

I'm getting 180-230 FEC errors per second during downloads.

I think the problem might actually be your extremely low SNR ranges, I have between 39 and 41 dB on all channels (I also have coax, not fiber).

This is caused by a bad coax cables.

I also have 39-41dB on my DOCSIS line. That's normal.

DOCSIS cable (coax cable)

The cable goes from the DSLAM (FTTC) to the neighboring house and then to my house. This cable seems to have a problem.

FTTC = Fiber optic to DSLAM
The remaining ~150 meters are copper cables

I was just about to play a round of BF6, but it felt terrible. After a few minutes, the game crashed (C2D).

Event log: The hardware real-time clock failed to set due to an error in the evaluation of the ACPI time and alarm device method. Status: 0xC0000001.

There is no point trying to play with this issue bro, just sitting idle on twitch and youtube i can tell the video isnt as smooth as its meant to be. Im trying one last thing (balanced isolation transformer as was recommended here), if not im going to try move places again
