Internet: Low download speed and high latency

Latency seems a bit high. Download speeds are good and upload speeds are decent.

Having a high download/upload speed is good, but for some reason people get it in there heads that it needs to be really high to play games online well. This is not the case, games generally use little bandwidth, so download/upload speeds aren't really
much of an issue for most people.

The most important thing for online gaming is having low ping/latency and no packet loss. This is what causes most lagg in online games.

Low ping = good.

The 'bar' is not ping, it's the general quality of your internet connection, and a latency timer. The higher the latency, the higher the ping, the worse the connection is, the lower the bar will go. I'd do a speed test on an internet browser to see if it's
your internet connection or not.

Hello gamer

Gaming online requires a smooth connection to keep play enjoyable and online play with satellite internet will be almost impossible because of the high latency of satellite connections. Your download speeds might be very high, but to upload data, you still
need to use a phone line. Xbox Live requires that you be able to download and upload data at broadband speeds, which is why Microsoft insists on stable connections capable of high speed.

the only thing i have now to try sort download speed is 73.95 MBPS - upload speed is 17.47Mbps but my latency is 157ms n mtu 1480 was told my latency is to high
