"I have been suffering from the exact same problem since 2017. I tried all expected and unexpected solutions, but nothing worked. After all these years, I became highly knowledgeable about our problem and electrical systems in general.I can say that grounding might be the solution, but it must be an excellent grounding system; otherwise, the situation could get even worse. Since you are planning to set up grounding for just one or two devices, I have a solution for you.I am from Saudi Arabia, and I suffer from this issue and know many others who do too. By chance, I came across someone interested in audio production who moved to a new apartment that lacked grounding. He started hearing noise in his speakers and home studio, whereas he had no issues at all before moving. He tried installing a grounding box for two devices—the DAC and the amp—and his problem was permanently resolved.
"He explained the problem and how he fixed it on X (Twitter). I couldn't send the link here, so contact me on Discord (oD7m1) and I will send you the link to his tweet. I have been wanting to try this method for a while but didn't know how to start. Since you already want to do grounding, try this method. It is cheaper and offers better grounding quality."

IMPORTANT:
This subforum is for advanced users only. This separate area is for niche or unexpected lag issues such as electromagnetic interference (EMI, EMF, electrical, radiofrequency, etc). Interference of all kinds (wired, wireless, external, internal, environment, bad component) can cause error-correction (ECC) latencies like a bad modem connection, except internally in a circuit. ECC = retransmits = lag. Troubleshooting may require university degree. Your lag issue is likely not EMI.

Re: I have a real electricity problem
and also guys...
changing realtek LAN drivers either makes my mouse extremely fast, or extremely sluggish...
same thing with the AMD chipset drivers ...
for the lan drivers, had no issues the first week when i got fiber, then got fkd up 1week later or less.
thats why i also want to ground my router

Re: I have a real electricity problem
It doesn't seem like you're suffering from desync, just poor hit registration. When you move, bullets still miss you by passing to the sides. With real desync, that's basically impossible.
If it's only the heavy mouse feeling, I'd recommend buying an Intel PCI network card. I used Realtek for years too, but about a year ago I switched to an Intel I210-AT. At first I thought it was just my imagination, but whenever I plug the Ethernet cable back into the motherboard and use the Realtek NIC, the heavy mouse feeling becomes much worse.
I don't think it will actually improve your hit registration, but if you're having that mouse issue, it's up to you whether you want to test it or not
