Need help with network issues

My Asus TUF gaming laptop (don't know the model, GTX 1650, Ryzen 7 3750H, bought around 2019-2020) started experiencing serious networking issues.

It usually goes like this: I start a game, everything is fine, but every ~10 minutes I get a 5-20 second window of "bad connection to the server" "bad network connection" everything/everybody either freeze in the animation they were in or start flying. It started with War Thunder so I dismissed it as bad servers but after playing Helldivers 2 and seeing everybody just leave at the same time constantly, I was sure it was a me problem. Later I played L4D2 with my bro in the same house, both connected to the same ethernet, yet it still kept happening so no bad wifi.

No, it doesn't disconnect from the wifi. Yes, I ran drivers update search both in windows and MyAsus app, everything is up to date. Yes, I tried cleaning the wifi card connections. No, it still does this.

Should I get a new wifi card? Do I need some extra drivers? Any help is appretiated
