Question Ping issues on wireless network with great speeds.

[LegendRaj]

So, I play games like Overwatch and Counter Strike Global Offensive (CSGO) these are quite competitive games so the smallest amount of lag is quite noticeable.

I've recently been having problems with my ping, it reaches about 70-80 on csgo but it stutters A LOT. I used to get around 35-45 ms when my internet worked fine. I'm on wireless and too far from my router to use an Ethernet, my download speed is 215.7 Mbps and my upload is 7.6 Mbps. When doing my speed test i noticed that it said my ping / latency was 27ms so I'm guessing that the games put a lot of stress on the internet somehow. Any help would be greatly appreciated

You are almost never too far for an ethernet cable. It will work at over 300ft. It might not be easy, or convenient, or cheap, but too far is probably not your problem. If you can't or won't run an ethernet cable, then coax with MoCA or powerline network adapters may be better than WIFI.
