1. The Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling ("HAGS") feature in Windows is currently known to cause performance and capture issues with OBS, games and overlay tools. It's an experimental feature and we recommend disabling it via these instructions.
2. One of your audio devices has a sample rate that doesn't match the rest. This can result in audio drift over time or sound distortion. Check your audio devices in Windows settings (both Playback and Recording) and ensure the Default Format (under Advanced) is consistent. 48000 Hz is recommended.
OBS Sample Rate: 48000 Hz
Microphone (BEACN Mic): 96000 Hz
Headphones (3- WH-XB910N): 48000 Hz
3. Use a wired connection and make sure you have Dynamic Bitrate enabled. Settings > Advanced > Network.
4. Your log contains no streaming session. Results of this log analysis are limited. Please post a link to a clean log file.
To make a clean log file, please follow these steps:
1) Restart OBS.
2) Start your stream for at least 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
3) Stop your stream.
4) Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Send that link here.

No, you didn't .. per that log... still seeing audio devices using different sampling rates
21:23:33.731: Output 'adv_stream': Number of dropped frames due to insufficient bandwidth/connection stalls: 674 (16.1%)
See the MANY other threads on WiFi
Have you tested using a wired Ethernet connection? That other WiFi devices are working normally (download traffic primarily, right) doesn't tell you much. Are you doing real-time monitoring on both your computer, WiFi, and your WAN link? if not, you are doing the equivalent of driving a car blind-folded
Real-time monitoring of WiFi bands, utilization, etc is fairly complicated, and often requires special equipment (as consumer OSes and
WiFi devices intentionally prevent simultaneous listening on all bands/frequencies and seeing other client traffic volumes)
Save yourself the hassle, time and trouble and test
1. using a wired Ethernet connection .. and then go from there
if still having issue, disconnect EVERYTHING else from LAN (power off smart devices, disable WiFi, etc).. and test again
you can skip this step is you have real-time monitoring of WAN link with separate upload and download traffic per client but if you had this, you'd probably already have your answer (unless issue is WiFi interference, which came being coming from a neighbor or any number of other sources)

I did try a wired connection and had the same issue. im ngl i have zero idea on what wan link or real time monitoring is lol.
