  1. High ping makes multiplayer impossible


    I was playing Halo 5 when it first came out and it was completely playable. I tried to play recently and it was a mess. I checked my detailed network statistics, downloads and uploads are fine however I have a ping of ~240ms. I live on the east coast
    of Australia and since there are servers in nearby i am expecting pings of ~ 50ms, which I am sure was the case before.

    Please help, I just want to confirm that I indeed am connecting to the Australian Azure servers as a ping of 240 would indicate that I am connecting to somewhere far far away.

    :)

    high ping

    Hi CleanCalf366551 there is a few things you can do the first thing I suggest is to go to your network and run a network detail stats test this will be a screenshot of what youre running at that very moment compare it to speed test you do on your computer
    you use Speedtest.net that's a good site to use. Look for three things

    DOWNLOAD SPEED compare to your speed test (keep in mind this can be a little lower than what youre getting from your pc usually in a window 10 to 15 down from your what you get on your pc)

    UPLOAD SPEED This should not be higher than your download speed

    PACKET LOSS THIS SHOULD BE LESS THAN 2%

    once you do this Go offline on your console and power down for 30 second and make sure it plugged into the outlet not a power supply as xbox one have a built in power supply

    if this doesnt work check your updates go to system, console info and update , and then update look for latest update status see if the update is successful if it is not and it has failed you will need to reset your console don't worry you can reset and
    keep your games and apps so you don't have to reinstall everything! only thing you need to ensure is that you have your email and pass handy before you do that step

    This usually resolve the issue if not then look into opening your ports on your router

    https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/networking/network-ports-used-xbox-live
    remember everything is controlled by your router (its like your car (xbox) if the gas (network) has water (block ports) your car isn't going to run very well)

    good luck!

    High ping makes multiplayer impossible

    What delay do you get from using your computer, to ping a node located in Seattle, WA (US)? An easy way to do this is with pingtest.net and change from default settings, to ping a server located in Seattle.

    Post back and let us know the outcome.

    Network Issues

    Hi,

    I'm not an expert on Satellite Broadband, but I would expect online services such as online multiplayer to be virtually impossible, as stated because of the high latency and ping times. This is due to the distances involved transmitting to a satellite in
    space and then back down again.

    Having a quick look at google, the average ping times for satellite is about 600ms. Once a gamer starts getting ping times of about 100ms, they will experience problems with stutter and rubberbanding.

    Unfortunately I don't see how this will ever improve with satellite broadband, as the transmission times are limited simply by the laws of physics.

    Hi Revelator,

    As Arminator did a great job explaining ping. There really isn't much you can do to control this. As most multiplayer games like call of duty give a set person host in a party. If that person has real bad internet the whole team suffers with that internet.
    Personally I have noticed from time to time bad ping on games there are so many factors, its nearly impossible to control. Only thing would be an issue if it is high ping all the time. If there are a lot of devices in the house, you could upgrade the router
    to handle more devices.

    Thanks,

    Brad
