Ping measures the time it takes to reach the server in milliseconds, indicating distance or network problems.
If you're linking via Wi-Fi, the biggest cause of high ping is likely your router connection. You might also want to use tools such as pingplotter to examine the path packets take to the server and detect issues like jitter or lost packets.
wifi performance varies, often showing higher latency but minimal impact when the signal is strong. It’s usually not noticeable unless there are interruptions or stability problems. This isn’t the user’s issue @DES7OY3R—speedtest.net or pingtest.net can help you check your connection with other servers.
