Hello avid gamers, pro mice and keyboard, accurate, agile, fast and elusive! If you are constantly being killed in online battles, if you are late for running to the "point" in Contra, and enemies are in time earlier, and you are already beginning to wonder how to reduce the ping to the server, then this material is for you. Looking ahead, I will clarify that the article is not of an advertising nature and all the programs mentioned in it are really relevant to the problem. If one of them does not work for you, then the other one will give a positive result and help reduce the ping in the CS or another online game.

Let's start with the basic things. Have you ever wondered what the thing that ping is called is ? Ping is the time, expressed in milliseconds, that your computer requires to get a response from the server to the request sent. The larger the number, the slower your actions reach the server, and the longer you get information about the actions of other players. No wonder questions about how to reduce ping, most often arise in the minds of those who play in fast, dynamic games. Strategies and other more or less slow online slaughter are not as dependent on ping as shooters and MMORPGs.

Immediately I will warn you if you have a weak connection to the network, it is unlikely that anything described will help you, here we must start with the basic things - the search for a normal provider. Well, when this problem is solved and in your channel you are sure, you can proceed to configure the computer.

So, from theory to practice. If you are tired of logs, and you are burning with a desire to reduce the ping in "BWO" or any other game, you will need to install one of the programs that I will describe below.

The most commonly used utility for optimizing a connection is called cFosSpeed. Strictly speaking, this is not a utility, but a network driver, which is designed to ensure the optimal configuration of your connection. Having installed it, you go into the settings and insert the maximum channel priority for the game you are playing. Then connect to the server and check in the process, as this affects the speed of your connection.

To add your toy to the list of those for which the network connection is optimized, you need to go to the "Programs" subsection, go to "Games" there, and then you will figure it out. You need to define the shortcut on the desktop, where the game lies, and write the path to the .exe file in the utility.

Next on the list we will have a utility called "Internet Accelerator" produced by the world famous Ashampoo brand.

As in any other products of this respected office, the "Internet Accelerator" implemented the principle of "turned on and forgotten". How to reduce ping with it? All that is required from the user is to click on the button "Automatic optimization". The program performs its further actions independently. It will adjust your channel for optimal performance, allocate the necessary resources for demanding applications, unload the channel when you play. In general, quietly and imperceptibly will do its job, helping you to enjoy the games without distraction to solve problems with speed.

But it's time to move on to the next utility in our list. Although this is more a script, not a product in the traditional sense of the word "program". It's called "Leatrix Latency fix", and all that it does is remove the standard packet processing delay, which by default is present in Windows. How to reduce ping with it? With the utility enabled, you can be sure that the confirmation of the receipt of the package will be sent to the server immediately. Thus, the lag at reception and sending of packages considerably decreases, and together with it and a ping, and after all it is that is necessary to us! Do not forget to reboot the computer, after installing and running this script.
