Location issue: Device is too distant from your router. Need help resolving this!
I was hoping somebody could help me. I live in Queensland, Australia and I just go connected to NBN finally! But I have a major issue my ping is really bad 60 if I'm lucky and then I get spikes up to 250 ping so I cannot play Overwatch ever and Battlefront 2 is just painful. I was wondering if I could run a wire outside my house and drill a few holes in the wall to just get some Ethernet. Can anyone help me with this. Another question if I got a Mesh WiFi System would that improve my ping or make it worse?? My router is so far away and I only get 1 bar with WiFi on my PC and nothing on my consoles. all my devices are in my room and I cannot move my setup because of family reasons. If anyone can help or suggest some steps or websites or videos anything would be greatly appreciated.
I think I might need to handle this myself but should I just do it myself and drill holes or should I call professionals? I want to understand the cost. Also, since my family is renting, we need approval from them.
You can ask your landlords for approval before making changes to the exterior, but you should use specialized outdoor cables instead of regular Cat6.
