Re: how to reduce ping / latency with 5g home internet
jthrill wrote: hey! I just got the service and the download and upload speed are working great. unfortunately,I'm not about to game anymore because of the latency / ping. the ping on my speed test usually reads about 50-60ms but onceI'm in game it's around 120 and has a lot of lag. I was wondering if there's any way to reduce lag / latency? maybe connecting a high-speed gaming router? is that possible? does a 5ghz network help? thank you so much for any help!!!! There's a few options, if your gaming on a pc utilizingwindows operating system. You'll have to download TCPOptimizer which will change some windows settings that will improve download/upload and ping. Some reason 5G doesn't work well with windows. I noticed this when my apple/androiddevices were around 20 Ping but my computer was around 60. So do a speed test on your phone and check.Theoptimizer doubled my download and upload speeds while loweringmy ping substantially. T-Mobileclaims it's possible to get as low as5-10 Ping depending on time of day and location to yourtower. So anotheroption you can consider but might only be necessary if yourdistant to your toweris an external antenna that will boost your signal.Also make sure your PCs network card can handle high speeds, some cap out at around 100download.33Visto3likes0Comentarios
