Ping is the time a tiny message takes to reach a server and come back, measured in milliseconds. Lower is better, and for gaming and calls it matters more than raw speed.

What is a good ping?
| Ping (ms) | Rating | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| Under 30 | Excellent | Competitive gaming and calls |
| 30 – 60 | Good | Most games and streaming |
| 60 – 100 | Acceptable | Browsing and video; slight lag in games |
| Over 100 | Poor | Noticeable lag in fast games |
What is jitter?
Jitter is how much your ping varies from one measurement to the next. A low ping with high jitter still causes choppy audio and sudden lag spikes. Keep jitter under about 10 ms where possible.
How to lower your ping
- Use a network cable instead of Wi‑Fi.
- Pause downloads and streaming on other devices while you play.
- Pick the game server closest to you (Middle East if available).
- Restart your router and update its firmware.
