Long-term investigation of unstable input

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.

Changing settings, moving things, using online ups now changes absoltely nothing to my pc feel, im now connected to wall outlet...this was it for me. The coax lines in my entire town must be dodgy or something so you need them forming a connection? Hopefully it works for others

We have a TN-C-S electrical system serving four houses. If a coaxial cable is severed at one of the other houses, could it affect the electricity supply in my home???

It is 100% something to do with coax lines.

We each have separate electricity meters and circuit breakers. Will this cable affect everyone, or only the house where the coaxial cable is severed?

The coax port bare looks like this?

And you just connected a coax to cable to it and where is this coax cable leading to is connected to on the other end? What does the other end of the coax cable look like?

I noticed our house has old severed coax cable outside next to the electric meter and lot of cables going inside the house including the live Internet connection powered by coax also.

And what do you think is happening if the issue occurs offline or other locations too for example my laptop I take it many places and there is the lag and desync everywhere or also happening in gaming cafe?

I'm away from home until tomorrow so I'll check when I get back if it's still good, will be long enough for it to wear off if its a fake fix. It was a coax cable leading to the tv antenna in the attic, unrelated to Internet cables coming from the street.

Yeah the offline stuff is crazy so I'm not sure, currently my phone is more responsive and better picture quality than usual.
