Some websites like Facebook and Google work, but other websites like Lemmy (any instance), Reddit, my CMMS, various wholesaler sites hosted both in AU and worldwide, are affected.

I wonder if IPv4 is somehow wonky, but IPv6 is working fine? Since Facebook and Google definitely support IPv6, the others may not (although Reddit should too).

You could try comparing ping -4 and ping -6 when it happens. That is if your network supports IPv6.

If you do get any inconsistencies with ping, you could also try experimenting with traceroute/tracert, to see where the delay happens.

    Uhh, this might be true for WebRTC, except not much uses WebRTC other than for realtime streaming/calling. Jellyfin for example is just an mp4 stream over http; and http(s) will only use the IP in the DNS record. I'd like to see a packet capture if you are certain something is switching IP.
