Chromebook is causing ping for my switch even though im not downloading anything
this is getting really annoying, when ever i download something bigger then normal (50+ish) it causes it to what im going to call "shadow downloads" nothing is being downloaded but the ping still goes up (700-1000) is there any fix for this?

50 what? Where are you seeing ping inside chrome? None of this makes sense
probably ms (because OP mentions ping)
50ms spikes to 1000ms while downloading.
Sometimes depends on the download. Is it using mutliple connections? Is it P2P based?
Why sometimes?:
I have two friends. Everytime they download something their upload breaks up and we (in VOIP) can't hear them at all. One is using DSL, the other one using cable(TV) internet. They don't even live in the same state.
Doesn't have to be a torrent. Just the way the ISP set up the connections.
