14 Ways to Lower Your Ping and Improve Online Gaming
Only avid gamerѕ know the struggle to attain the best gaming experience. From buying the best monitorѕ with high refresh rates to buying the latest controllers, іt is a calculated effort. But, the most important consideration for smooth gaming is network ping. If you are getting a high ping during an online game, then you might experience lag, which may rυin your gameplay. There are severаl fаctors that affect the ping rate. Read below to leаrn a few effective ways to lower your ping.
14 Effective ways to lower your Ping and improve Online Gaming
You may be wondering: What is ping? Why is my ping so high? What should I do? You will find the answers to all these queries in this article.
Ping, also known as Network Latency, is the amount of time your computer takes to send signals to and receive signals from the internet servers you interact with. In the case of online games, high ping implies that the time taken by your computer to send and receive signals is high. Similarly, if you have a normal or low ping, it means that the speed of receiving and sending signals between your device and the game server is quick and stable. Evidently, ping rate can seriously affect online gaming if the signals between your gaming device and the gaming server are poor, unstable, or slow in communicating with each other.
Reasons behind high ping on your Windows 10 PC
There are several factors affecting the ping rate, a few being:
- Unstable internet connection
- Problems with the internet router
- Improper firewall configuration on your system
- Issues with Windows connection settings
- Multiple websites running in the background
- High CPU usage resulting in excessive heating of the device
We have listed down some methods that have proven to be helpful in lowering high ping during online gameplay on Windows 10 systems.
Method 1: Check your Internet Connection
If you have an unstable or poor internet connection, you might experience a high ping rate during online gaming. Moreover, your internet speed is indirectly proportional to the ping rate, which means that if you have a slow internet connection, your ping speed will be high. Either way, a high ping speed would ultimately lead to lag, game freeze, and game crash. Therefore, if you wish to lower your ping,
- Make sure you have a stable internet connection.
- Ensure that you are receiving good internet speed by running a speed test online.
- You can also opt for a better Internet plan to get increased speed and higher data limit.

3. Alternately, press the Reset button located on the router to reset it.
4. Re-connect your gaming device i.e., mobile/laptop/desktop, to it and check if you are getting a lower ping in online games.
Method 4: Limit the Wi-Fi Connected Devices
If you have multiple devices such as your PC, mobile phone, laptop, iPad, etc., connected to the Wi-Fi router in your house, you might experience high ping. Since the bandwidth distribution will be limited for gameplay, it will result in high ping speed in online games.
When you question yourself Why is my ping so high, the first thing you should check is the number of devices connected to your Wi-Fi router. The more the devices connected to it, the higher the ping you get in online games. Hence, to lower your ping, disconnect all other devices connected to your Wi-Fi connection that are currently not in use.
Method 5: Place PC and Router Closer
If you are using your Wi-Fi connection to access the internet from your device and getting high ping in an online game, then your device and Wi-Fi router may be kept afar. To fix this issue, you should place the two in proximity to each other.
1. Since moving a desktop can be challenging as compared to a laptop, you can try to move your router closer to your desktop.
2. The walls and rooms between your router and desktop can act as an obstruction leading to high ping speed. So, it would be best if both the devices are in the same room.
