For online gaming and team campaigns or streaming your gameplay live, here\u2019s what you need to focus on:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Low Latency:<\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/rADad0x8zPU?si=2HfExhxnseqG9JYQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Latency<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> measures how quickly your inputs reach the server. You can measure your latency by checking your ping. For smooth, lag-free gaming, you\u2019ll want to keep your ping as close to 0ms as possible. Higher ping (over 50ms) can cause delays that throw off your timing. And let\u2019s face it, there\u2019s nothing worse than lag ruining your game.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>High Download Speeds:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Gaming doesn\u2019t always need super-fast download speeds, but massive updates and downloads definitely do. With some games and patches combined hitting over 100GB, having blazing-fast Internet can save you hours of waiting and get you back in the action faster.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Reliable Upload Speeds: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do you stream your games or upload videos to Twitch or YouTube? Don\u2019t overlook your upload speeds. Slow uploads can mean buffering streams or, worse, your stream cutting out completely. Keep your content flowing smoothly.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Elimination of Dead Spots: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nothing\u2019s worse than a dead zone kicking you out of a live match mid-game. If you aren\u2019t going to hardwire your system, you need to have coverage throughout your whole home. Stay in the game with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/letsrev.com\/wifi\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whole Home WiFi<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
