• Yes, I also created a fresh install and have this problem with both MSFS and 2024. When I connect in anyway to microsoft servers that my LAN network and my connection stop every 10 seconds. Bringing me to 0/bs and then a maxium of around 40 MB/s.

Updating this after a few hours of troubleshooting. I re-installed Windows 11 completely and removed everything apart from files. Also I left the clock sync off and set it to USA/Canada while I am based in EU and I do not have any disconnection anymore with MSFS 2024. I didn’t try yet with MSFS, was a bit scared if I have something working to install the deluxe and/or premium content and go back to where I was 5 hours ago.

This seems to have been solved for me by making sure that the system is not allowed to shut down the ethernet card to save power (disable this setting in the device manager).
