Hello I am a League of Legends player and in the game internet connection stability is very important. While playing with friends together in same house on the same internet with ASUS GA502DU ( all drivers are up to date including windows ) sometimes ping jumps to 150-200 ( supposed to be around 40 ) than goes back to normal when I checked my friend's ping it was OK but mine is not. I tried to fix it. I have changed to older wifi driver and a new clean windows but couldn't figure it out. Planing to send it to tecnical support.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Imma start off by saying for most multiplayer games, you should ALWAYS attempt to use ethernet. Wifi solutions will suffer from higher latency, signal fluctuation that can lead to connection drops and packet loss, and will cause more issues when multiple devices are on the wifi hotspot and using it. However from my experience in War Thunder, I haven't had really any problems at all for multiplayer. After flipping through the Warranty Card as long as Best Buy is an authorized seller of the product then there should be no issues with installing a WiFi card you bought FROM Best Buy by having them do it. I will definetly tell you though that I have had some issues streaming from time to time. Up to you.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I will say that I have noticed a slight dip in performance for my WIFI. My current plan is for 30 Mb/s from spectrum and while usually I get around 25-28 Mb/s I have noticed on here I'm usually rocking a solid 5 Mb/s to 20mb/s not bad if you're not gaming but nothing that an Ethernet cable can't fix.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.don't play FPS or shooter games on this system over WiFi. It's not the bandwidth that I have issues with this system, it's the connection quality / latency /disruptions that I had problem with. Asus GA502 has a RJ45 port. For this system, I would only recommend playing over Ethernet for shooters.
