How many Mbps do I need for online gaming?
Online games need little speed and a lot of stability. See what really matters.
During a match, most games use less than 1 Mbps. What matters is low ping, low jitter and zero packet loss.
Where speed matters
For downloading games and updates, which today exceed 50 GB. That's where 300 Mbps or more makes a difference.
Tips
Play on a cable, avoid downloads on the network during matches and prefer the game's closest servers.
