How to Get FASTER Internet On PS5! (Reduce Lag and Lower Your Ping!) | SCG

[@semicomprehensiveguide]

Wanted to clarify what I said about upload speeds in the tutorial. Upload speed DOES matter and has to do with speeds and latency (aka ping) in online matches. Since online gaming generally involves data being sent and received (uploaded and downloaded) both speeds are important. In the video I should have said that your download will be higher than your upload but that doesn't mean the upload isn't important. Upload speed will almost always be lower than download because download is generally used more during non-gaming activities like web searching and video streaming. So even though your upload may be lower, its still enough for gaming because not too many other people on your network will be using it. Upload is generally less than a quarter of the download so if you have 100MBPS your upload will usually be around 15-25MBPS. There isn't an easy way to get faster upload outside of the steps I outline in this video. In some cases your ISP may be able to provide you with symmetric speeds but not all ISPs offer it to consumers. I apologize for any confusion during the video. All the steps I discuss in this tutorial also work for upload as well so try them out and see if they help your connection.

Thanks this vid got my download speed down 10 MB

[@theINQBS]

To correct one MAJOR mistake with what you said… Upload Speed is equally as important as Download Speed. Upload speed is what determines how servers receive your input, for instance in an FPS Game like COD or BF, a higher and more steady upload speed would result in much fewer mis-registered shots and moments where you were clearly ahead in the gun battle, yet your 8 shots barely damage the opponent, but their 3-4 shots drop you instantly. Upload speed is extremely important and cable internet like Comcast sucks because they give you 95% of the speed you pay for for download speed and 5% or less for upload speed. I’ve been battling with comcraptic for years now about this and the can simply make an adjustment on their back end, but they’d rather force you to pay for a faster speed in order to have a higher upload speed.

[@semicomprehensiveguide]

Fair enough. I should've rephrased and said that upload speed will never be equal to download. As you mentioned most ISPs provided asymmetric speeds because most people use the download speeds more than the upload. Some ISPs give you the option to get symmetric speeds but that option is not always available. Thank you for the clarification though.

I followed these steps and so far his ping has been in the low 40s ever since. Hopefully this resolved that issue, thanks for your work.

[@smokeythebeast8288]

Take it from somebody that's played rocket League since day one and I'm actually pretty good at it with a ranking of champion. That being said the servers in that game suck and you are going to have lag no matter what if you're under 100mbs. It won't be every match but it will be a lot. Mine stays around 375 to 400 MBS and I still have lag on some matches especially in tournaments. 1 tip with that game is make sure the only servers he is trying to get into other ones closest to him like I have mine set to the east coast only
