Find the optimal method to link your PC with the router.
Hello, my name is Francesco. I spend a lot of time online for gaming and streaming. Last week I moved into a bigger house—previous place was fine but my room was tiny. Now the biggest issue is the router signal. It’s strong enough to cover the whole house, even the garage upstairs. However, internet speeds are slow lately, probably due to heavy usage like free services. When I tried streaming today it failed because of lag, and my game worked just fine. What should I do to improve connection and reduce lag? Should I use LAN cables or a Wi-Fi booster? My current speed is about 40 Mb/s down and 10 Mb/s up.
Where are you located? Are you in Italy, seeing as you mentioned it got bad when pornhub was made free. If so, nothing will help this..... But I am just trying to understand the exact situation. Yes, a wire will help, wires are always the best option for networking, but if you are experiencing an ISP related bandwidth issue (you live in Italy where the internet is being HAMMERED), a wire to your router will not actually help anything.
