Question is above. I've heard of a 7 cat cable or something that is supposed to provide a low'ping. I'm currently using a router from Vodaphone which unfortunately gives me enormous Internet problems when gaming. Just 60ping… That's why I want to do something about it.
0 ping is not possible.
0 ping is not possible because communication via the Internet creates a certain latency - due to the principle.
Measuring the ping rate only makes sense if you are connected to the internet router with your cable. If the rate is then very high, it is certainly not the cause of the cable, because that has no effect on the ping rate, but on the number of bytes that can go over per second. Only very few bytes are transferred during ping, so the cable doesn't really matter at first.
Even a Cat7 cable doesn't do more than your router / network switch can do. As long as it's at least a Cat 5e cable, it's fast enough for Gigabit Ethernet. And that should in any case be faster than your internet connection.
Of course mostly in creative
If you don't have a 500k line and then don't get 500k (impossible) you don't get a 0 ping, which is unnecessary anyway
Then you may not be connected to the internet. A 0-ping connection is physically absolutely impossible in the household at the moment.
Yes, I know friends who always think they have 0ping in creative mostly. But now I don't necessarily want 0ping but just low ping so 2 or 10 but definitely not 60 xD
You might think so, but it's not technically possible. And certainly not if you replace a cable whose full potential you can't use at all due to the lack of other hardware, because for Cat 7 cables there's simply no consumer hardware that uses the full data rate that the cable could theoretically.
And what is the best internet setup for gaming routers / cables etc? Because 60ping is not good and ping lower than 60 is definitely possible.
If the internet connection allows it. You can lay the best cables and hardware in your house, but if the internet connection doesn't work, it's a waste of money.
I have a 500 tariff from Vodafone with a FritzBox and normal Cat 6 cables (with switches in between) and currently come up with a ping rate of a little over 20ms during the speed test. And I think that's pretty neat.
0 ping is impossible because communication over the Internet always creates a certain latency.
To improve your connection in your home network: the shortest possible cable directly between the PC and router. Your ping also depends on the internet provider.
