I also game online and have no lag or jitter(unless it’s server side and everyone is complaining). Like I said before. I have good ping and zero packet loss. Sounds like you had a bad wifi set up.
That’s all the way through the gateway using its wifi, too. I’m sure if I plugged in the ethernet cable and skipped the wifi it would shave off like 10ms.
I think in my part of europe cable is the only realistic solution, every home cellular thing has a download limit. All of the cable offerings here are flat
i play games online, and wireless is prone to jitter and lag spikes.
you don’t notice these things when browsing the web, streaming movies, or even downloading large games. but in multiplayer games it’s a problem
i have gigabit fiber in my neighborhood though, so i’m not being forced to choose between shitty cable and compromised wireless

Define “good” ping. (Latency is the proper term)
Edit: Nvm, just saw your other comment. 50ms isn’t bad.
30ms+ is high for cable in my experience. I was getting routinely in the high teens and low 20s.
On fiber I get less than 10ms.

Can’t beat it for just $30 a month.
