100ms to a local address over wifi also sets off alarm bells in my head. Ya network it probably porked, mate :(

Nicely done, I won't comment on the industry my employer is in (Fibre Optics...)

Cable fault or Windows 10 driver/protocol stack crashing. I bet on a later, as it only happens on a load volume(?) or load type(?). Do it also happen happen when you transfer large folders over the LAN?

After seeing post from agentrfr it also comes to the question: What is your DPC latency?

It has happened to me while transferring large folders over LAN too yes,

How do I check the DPC Latency ?

Check support site for your network adapter. They might offer diagnostic utility which reports frame drop rate, etc... If tests pass successfully, problem is on your PC driver stack.

For Windows 10 google for LatencyMon, it can be some other.

Now we've got some troubleshooting out of the way to eliminate things, and have a little more info, going to suggest that you update your network card driver.

A quick google shows that its a common issue for the Broadcom Netlink driver to lose connectivity; i.e. the exact issue you're seeing.
