How Often Should You Perform an IP Renew to Avoid Connectivity Issues? or Does an IP Renew Fix Common

ip renew is my first step too, but if it fails, I go nuclear: full network stack reset (*netsh winsock reset*). Works way more often than it should.

For tools, GlassWire’s great for spotting weird traffic spikes, and Namebench can help find a faster DNS.

Side note: if you’re gaming, make sure your NAT isn’t being weird. That’s killed my connection more times than I can count.
