    Wi-Fi Jitter, Erratic Ping, Latency Due To AWDL (AirDrop/AirPlay)

    I have noticed that Wi-Fi on macOS Ventura has high jitter. This affects any real-time application. It is common for latency (ping) to spike to spike from a normal 2-10ms to nearly 200ms. This has happened in 13.0 and now 13.1. The only fix so far has been to disable AWDL; which is used by...

I ask because audio from iPad is noticeably worse with Airplay vs. my Macbook Air Is this an AAC thing, an...
