Hey everyone! Recently, I played Rainbow Six with my girlfriend and she told me that people were always teleporting in every game. She said she had seen this before, but it was still annoying. When I played on her computer to see what was going on, I noticed that players actually teleported like they had 500 ping. But the problem wasn't the connection. Even though I tried sharing my 5G signal with her laptop, her ping stayed around 10. We have the same computer: an Asus ROG Strix with an RTX 3070 and an AMD Ryzen 7 5000 series. The issue doesn't come from bad performance either. I thought about driver issues so I updated both her graphics and connection drivers in vain. This only happens when playing online, since there were no problems against bots. And she has no networking problem when not gaming, so I don't think the network card is to blame. I really have no other idea on how to fix it. Thanks for your help, Louis Veran

Could it be the packet buffer is large and waiting to fill up before sending data in groups? This helps with maximum bandwidth but adds a lot of lag. Are you using Wi-Fi or LAN?

Hey, thanks for getting back to me. The internet comes through the WiFi, but there is no ethernet cable near by.

Hi there, So I tried what you told me to do. I followed the steps and removed network device drivers then installed them again. I hoped that would fix things but nothing changed and I'm sad about it Sad. I think this problem is weird. Maybe it's about hardware?
