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!
