Had this issue since I got Fixed LTE in November but decided to finally ask if anyone else suffer from this.

I can run pingtests for hours without a single drop. No other games report packetloss but CS2 and DOTA2 always show packetloss (usually over 30%). Other older Source games like L4D2 show zero packetloss. I thought it was a Valve server issue but in community CS2 servers it still happens. Is it a Source 2 issue? Maybe completely unrelated to my internet?

I can't emphasis this enough but it only happens in these 2 games (of the 10+ or so games I've tried). It's one of the weirdest issues I've come across.

What exactly are you running ping tests to?
Doesn't matter if it's fixed LTE it's a wireless signal that's prone to interference.
Where's your diagram?

I can run pingtests to anything, saix, rain, 1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8, whatever for hours without a single dropped packet. I don't have packetloss on my line, period. I have no packetloss in ANY other games (I hope the bold formatting is visible here). Just these two.

To make it clear, I'm not talking about latency or that I "think" I have packetloss. The game's OSD tells me I have packetloss. I've had Dial-up, ADSL, LTE and 5G and have never experienced packetloss in a specific game and not have in it others.

Try a vpn just see if its goes away
 
Another test could be to just take your gaming pc to a friend's place who uses a different FNO and ISP and compare.

Okay but where's your diagram?
