What is a good number for ping and latency for Xbox series X online gaming

Hello

The latency shown on the network tab is not an accurate reading to in game latency. The number shown is the ping the Xbox One gets trying to ping the Xbox servers in Redmond Washington, for gaming however your Xbox pings the closest server available so you
can just neglect the ping on the network tab.

I'm not very knowledgeable on pings and stuff but do you have a Laptop or PC available? Might be worth seeing what the latency is on a different device to know whether it's the network connection of the XB1 or whether it's the network itself

I would suspect it is likely to be the network itself rather than your hardware. Is it impacting your gaming or is it just something you noticed? I only ask as high pings and latency don't always cause issues....my latency on PC, XB1 and Series X is around 150 and I have no issues

There is very little you can do about this, the problem isn't speed it's latency. Latency is the delay of data between you and you and the other person. This can be measured as a Ping. A ping is the time it takes in milliseconds for your data to be sent
back to you. When I tested my ping from Birmingham in the UK to Sydney Australia, the ping was 316ms, a good ping for online gaming is anything below 100ms. I'm afraid there is no way to fix this.

they are using series x hardware in the datacentre's now, so in fact series games on the cloud are running via mostly series x hardware, still the quality is set by your internet speed and latency, if you have good speeds but your latency is rubbish then you will get reduced picture quality to prioritise controller latency.

but cloud gaming is still only streamed at 720p.

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there despite the issue that you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regards to your concern.

Please perform an extended powercycle and reset your network hardware by following the steps below:

1. Unplug the power cable from the back of the router, modem, or gateway for 5 minutes. If you have a router and a modem, unplug the power cable from both devices.

2. Press and hold the Xbox button on your console for 10 seconds or until it turns off then wait for 2 minutes before turning it on again.

3. After 5 minutes, plug the modem or gateway in first, and wait for all the lights to return to their normal state.

4. If you are using a router, plug in the router and wait for all the lights to return to their normal state.
