If you want to enjoy the best performance of online games, you need to configure your network environment properly. Here are some tips that can help you:
1. Use a wired Ethernet or 5GHz/6GHz Wi-Fi connection instead of 2.4GHz Wi-Fi connection. The latter can be easily interrupted by other signals, which can affect your gaming experience. A wired network is the most recommended option for stability and speed.
2. Update the firmware of your router to the latest version. This can improve the compatibility and security of your router. You can download the latest firmware from TP-Link Support page.
3. Enable HomeShield on the router to protect your network from malicious attacks when playing games. You can also turn off your anti-virus software temporarily, as it may interfere with your game connection.
4. Close and terminate any programs that download or stream music/video. These programs consume a lot of bandwidth, which can slow down your game traffic. WTFast is designed to only accelerate the game traffic from your computer, but it cannot prevent other traffic from affecting your game.
5. Avoid using a VPN with WTFast, as it can have negative results to your game connection. A VPN may cause unexpected lag due to server changes. You should halt your VPN when you are gaming to prevent this issue.
