sorry if this is the wrong place to post this.
Recently i switched to steam os on my pc, installed battle net and everything went smoothly. I played in beta and i dont have issue but when i play on live my ping would shoot to 1000 to 4000. and it only smooth on the first 10 minutes or so. I dont know what else i should do so any help is appreciated.

Im using starlink so i tried to relocate the dish.
turning off firewall in my asus modem
turning off firewall in my pc
turning on and off qos
turning on and off ipv6
changing poton
I tried several ping checker and in my browser everything seem normal
the actual SteamOS is probaby not a good system to use for your PC. I would suggest using a distro that focus on gaming. The SteamOS is focused on the SteamDeck
Check out this page for a good list of gaming distros. https://distro.watch/distros/category/gaming
I turned my friend onto Pop and he used it for a bit and then went to something else but he has stayed on Linux so I consider that a great win and a good starting distro for a newbie. It has good nvidia support out of the box.
I use arch and have built it from the ground up, but I would not recommend that to a newbie. But if you get confident with linux and want to maximize your potential, arch is the way to do it
Not sure why you’re getting downvoted, but I wonder about that, too. SteamOS is primarily focused on Valve hardware, right? vs. something like CachyOS is Arch-based (so gets live updates/improvements ASAP) or Bazzite (immutable, so hard to break) and both are designed for general PC gaming, so likely have more attention to broad hardware/software/firmware compatibility.
If I were OP, I’d try live booting CachyOS to see if it works better.
Steamos is on my steam machine which is made and designed for gaming.
Yes, but of course you’d expect Valve’s SteamOS to work very well on Valve hardware.
SteamOS is based on Arch.
Yes I understand that. But it’s developed and optimization is for the Steam* hardware
