I’ve had a weird issue with Steam lately.
Whenever I go to download a game on my pc, it will download fine, but I will lose internet for everything else on my network until the download is complete or I stop the download.
At first I thought this might be an issue with my ISP, but this doesn’t happen when downloading a game from my Steamdeck.
Anyone have any fixes for this?

Rare, but it could be a nat table exhaustion. My old ‘commander’ modem would do the same thing if I opened a bittorrent client.
Try a free or trial VPN like tunnelbear to see if this is the cause. It’s probably not, but it’s one more thing you can try.
You might be onto something there, doesn’t seem to be happening when connected to a VPN
