What is a good internet speed for gaming?

For online gaming, you typically need at least 3-6 Mbps download and ping under 100 ms. For competitive games, aim for ping under 30 ms and jitter under 5 ms.

Why is my jitter high?

High jitter is usually caused by network congestion, Wi-Fi interference or ISP routing issues. Try a wired Ethernet connection or move closer to your router.

What download speed do I need for 4K streaming?

Netflix recommends at least 25 Mbps for 4K streaming. For multiple simultaneous 4K streams, plan for 50 Mbps or more.
