I have been experiencing regular ping spikes while playing games like Dota 2 or CS:GO for around 2 months now (Started occurring since 1 week after first-use). My ping would suddenly rise to 200 for a few seconds and then drop down to my usual 60 ping. It's very annoying to play with these lag spikes because they happen as often as every 30-60 seconds.
I'm using Windows 10 and my network adapter is Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260.
I have Google'd a lot on this problem and have tried many solutions such as,
Updating networking drivers.
Reinstalling different versions of the required driver.
Reinstalling GameFirst III or uninstalling it for good.
Editing registry file (ScanWhenAssociated).
Unfortunately, none of these solutions have solved my problem even though others have reported success. I have other computers running games smoothly on the same WiFi network, therefore it is not something wrong with the router or my internet connection.
I have also tried ping tests through CMD and they show random ping spikes as well.
I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me solve this problem.
