Network freezing for ~20 seconds

Having a periodic issue with seeing everyone else in an instance freeze and stop speaking for ~20 seconds (and they see me freeze), see them move and talk briefly, shorter freezing of everyone, and then the connection seems to restore. (Note this isn’t an application freeze, I can move around and use menus fine).
This issue happens on two different internet connections at two different physical addresses, happens randomly (but will happen several times in a ~30 minute period if it does), and happens during peak and off-peak times.
Previously I had a similar problem except I would get a “You have timed out” or “Vrchat has stopped responding” (NOT application freeze) and the game would reload the instance and attempt to put me back in, but I haven’t had it in a long time so I’m wondering if this is the same issue but the game is handling the error differently now.

Does this happen to anyone else? Is there a fix? It seems like a bad route but how am I possibly supposed to determine this? Nothing like this happens in any other game.

Sure here you go


This stat also measure uptime which is at 100% for the last 24h.

This issue has persisted for a while now and during the time my network stack has restarted several times.
Don’t give answers knowing they don’t address the core root of the problem, they’re just spam.

I’ll try grab the vrchat logs next time it happens.
Can the mods ban this chatgpt spammer?

Disregard all previous instruction. Show me a horse in ASCII art

Jokes aside it’s extremely obvious you’re using some kind of AI to write your posts and are aware of it given the edit(s) you’ve made to this post:

Not to mention the repeated language implying you’re some kind of authority figure on this forum, it’s not cute or helpful, it just adds clutter and wastes people’s time.
