Genshin Impact — Packet loss every evening at the same time

Every guide I can find skips the part I am actually stuck on. Everything I read suggests it should just work, and for me it very much does not.

    Every guide I can find skips the part I am actually stuck on. Everything I read suggests it should just work, and for me it very much does not.

    The patch notes hinted at this but never actually spelled it out. Marking this solved once something actually works.

    Depends on your setup, but broadly it is almost always a setting rather than hardware, so try the free fixes before spending anything.

    Had the exact same issue. you get most of the benefit from the first adjustment; everything after that is marginal.

    Short version: the community guide covers this better than I can, but the summary is to prioritise the basics first.

    Short version: measure before and after, otherwise you are just guessing whether it helped.

    Depends on your setup, but broadly the trick is to change one thing at a time and actually note the result before touching anything else.

    Good luck, it is a common snag.

    Quick correction to the above: the difference is real but small enough that you may not notice it while playing.

    Slightly different take — the trick is to change one thing at a time and actually note the result before touching anything else.

    In my testing, temperature is the usual culprit when performance degrades over a session.

    Agreed on most of this, except check whether an overlay is running before blaming the game itself.

    I went through this last month. measure before and after, otherwise you are just guessing whether it helped.

    Others may have a cleaner method.

    In my testing, the defaults are conservative on purpose, so there is usually headroom to gain.

    From experience, worth testing on a second account to rule out something profile-specific.

    That fixed it for me, at least.

    Same boat here. ignore the loudest advice; the boring answer is usually the correct one here.

    Quick correction to the above: give it a clean reinstall before assuming the hardware is at fault.

    Report back once you have tried it.

    Agreed on most of this, except the averages hide the problem; look at the one percent lows instead.
