On the new window, navigate to the Network section and open the processes with network activity. After a few seconds, you will see every process using your network connection. This might be the Epic Games launcher, your browser running in the background, or a download bottle-necking your network connection.

Command Prompt
Open up your command prompt by searching for CMD in your taskbar search. The next two commands will help you test and improve your latency and packet loss in case your connection is inducing any. ping google.com This command will simply check your latency and packet loss to Google’s servers. You can also ping another server, but the ping google.com command has become somewhat of a benchmark in recent years. ipconfig /flushdns This command will reset your network connection by flushing its DNS resolver cache. This command will help improve your latency issues.
