[Solved] Strange Network Problems After Fresh Arch Install in c/linux4noobs@programming.dev
[–] leastprivilege@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Thank you for your reply ❤️ . I've tried that fix using ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.steam/steam/steam_dev.cfg but the issue still persists. I don't think its just related to steam. I noticed sometimes when I go to a website it will time out but then it will load just fine on a refresh. Or like a YouTube video wont load initially. It's very frustrating because it wont show up on other speed tests.

As I was typing this I thought in my head... This sounds like a DNS issue. It must be a DNS issue. For some reason even though my router was set to 9.9.9.9 and my computer was set to my router, setting the DNS address manually in network manager fixed the issue.

[Solved] Strange Network Problems After Fresh Arch Install (lemmy.ml)

I'm having network issues on Arch Linux, particularly with Steam download speeds, which fluctuate and are slower than usual. Additionally, I've noticed that things sometimes take longer than normal to load but usually load up after refreshing which makes me think the issue is not specific to Steam.

Here’s what I’ve tried:

  • Tested on a Windows laptop which showed normal speeds.
  • Reinstalled my system using Bazzite, which resolved the issue and showed normal speeds.
  • Reinstalled Arch Linux, but the problem returned.

Other Info:

  • Installed Arch with Archinstall using NetworkManager
  • I'm on a wired connection
  • DNS set to my router, which uses Quad9 DNS
  • Steam installed via Flatpak

Any troubleshooting ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Looks like the end of league of legends on Linux. Hopefully with the growing popularity we see some support in the future.

I would set up a Kali VM and play on HTB or tryhack me. They will have windows machines already set up for you. HTB academy's "getting started" module would be a good place to start or TCM's practical ethical hacking course (there is a free version on YouTube).

It's been too long since I've tried tryhackme to give a fair comparison but so far I am liking the modules on HTB.

I would say if your school uses handshake or something similar start there otherwise the usual jobs boards work.
