Need help with lag

I've been scouring the Internet for help with my connection. I lag on games and sometimes have a high ping especially on GOW Ultimate Edition. I was wondering if disabling that Dos protection will help my connection.

Need help with lag issues...

Dropped on your head?!?! Wow you are the poster child for "ignorance is bliss" I suggest that if you have no clue about the topic at hand, keep out of it!!

My lag is at 61ms and as Temhotabot said, "You can use LCD tvs for gaming you just need ot make sure the response rate is below 8ms." Mine is now below 8ms (not perfect for GH, but will do)

So in response to your obvious backward thinking.... lemme slow this down for you Response time is??? Ohhh wait it's the time it takes for the TV to display the pic rec'd from whatever source..

Lag is the value associated with the latency or RESPONSE TIME!! *shakes head*

Have a Wonderfully ignorant day!!

You're getting worked up about an old thread.

Anyway, the response time on an LCD is the time it takes for the liquid crystal to shift to the target position, i.e. pass through the desired amount of light. Manufacturers usually measure this during a gray-to-gray transition rather than black-to-white-to-black,
since it gives nicer numbers. The actual response time varies though across the contrast range of the display panel. In many cases it's substantially worse in dark areas of the picture.

The input lag is much longer and has to do with the TV buffering the picture in memory while it's being processed. This is necessary for things such as de-interlacing, but is often done for other features as well. TVs that have motion enhancement need to delay
the picture by at least one frame, sometimes several, since they're needed for reference in calculating new, intermediate frames. This can make the delay skyrocket.

This delay from buffering is far greater than the response time of the panel itself. The response time doesn't cause any perceiveable delay, but a long response time causes smearing in moving parts of the picture. A short response time is desireable to achieve
a sharper picture during movement.

On top of this you get lag from the game itself as it needs to process the controller input, make gameplay calculations, and then render each new frame.

Unfortunately this TV doesn't appear to have a Game mode... this is such a pain in the @@@ lol

 

what is the modem and router you are using ? if its from your isp , that may be the issue...

 

I bought a netgear 6300c 2 in one cable modem

 

If it isn't your ISP you can try basic troubleshooting steps for networking connectivity.

Can you go to Settings - Network - Network settings - Test network connection - after also Test multiplayer connection - if it is all good then click detailed network statistics and copy down your Download speed, Upload speed, Packet loss and wireless strength
(Only if you are using WiFi)

Network troubleshooting.

Please click the link above to see the recommended troubleshooting steps.

If those don't work a
power cycle also seems too clear things up with the network etc.
