Why you should connect to the internet with an ethernet cable when online gaming
The reason ethernet cables should be used during online gaming is because ethernet connects result in less latency.
Latency is a technical term used to describe the delay of a given internet connection.
Ethernet cables provide internet connections with much less latency when compared to WiFi connections to the internet. This is due to the fact that data needs to be translated into a different format (analog) in order to send it through the air via WiFi.
Conversely, data remains in the same form (digital) when it’s sent over an ethernet connection to the internet. The translation of data from digital to analog form (and back again) takes time, which leads to delay in the sending and receiving of the data.
Too much latency in an internet connection can lead to a “laggy” experience when online gaming. This is why ethernet should always be the choice for serious online gamers.
