I'm seeing some issues related to wifi and I'm not sure what could be wrong. I'm currently on the latest stock firmware from Asus (3.0.0.6.102_37031) and basically things will look fine but latency will spike tremendously on wifi randomly and sometimes for more than just a second or two. I think the easiest way to explain the issue is to post my usage example where the latency issue really kills me.
I have 2 WiFi 7 clients, both are using the Qualcomm FastConnect 7800 Wi-Fi 7 High Band Simultaneous (HBS) Network Adapter, both are on Windows 11 24H2 (albeit slightly different builds but whatever) and both are on v3.1.0.1323 of the qualcomm driver. Both are connected to the wifi 7 with MLO enabled network. (I have tried disabling MLO but that doesn't seem to make things better or worse) Both machines are on the same router of course, I think this goes without saying that they're on the same LAN but I just want to make it clear that this isn't going over the internet so the latency spikes are purely internal. One machine is running Sunshine for hosting game streaming, and the other is running Moonlight to connect via LAN to the Sunshine host. This is where the latency spikes become very apparent as the spikes cause network related frame drops to spike to 100% and the stream basically freezes entirely. The kicker is, if I move the host to Ethernet, despite the client still being connected to wifi, the issue seems to go away entirely. This isn't a viable solution though as I can't permanently keep any of my machines that close to the router for reasons that are irrelevant, and it doesn't change that the wifi shouldn't be so unstable. It just proves at least to me that the issue is with the wifi.
Has anyone been experiencing similar issues? Have you found a way to fix it? Is it an issue with the firmware? I would have hoped the firmware would be much more mature by now but maybe that's just what the issue is?
