So I had a question, I currently rent and my landlord won’t allow me to drill a hole in the brick to get another internet cable into my main pc/room. So I’m using a Ethernet adapter. Currently my speed is 250 , but I get lag spikes sometimes not sure if it’s from the adapter, my question is would this mesh system be better for accessing speeds consistently?
At 5:55 I haven't heard a lick of the information I'm looking for & I cannot stand to listen to you prattle on about nothing any longer. Thanks for annoying.
Ethernet cable is always going to be better regardless of your bandwidth. Besides the upload/download speed capped at 100mbps it will have a lower latency which is much better for gaming and work.
ethernet /thread if you need to reach the corners of your house, skip eth over powerline (too much jitter and variability) and use MoCA 2.0 bonded or better eth over phoneline would be next best choice, but is rarely available anymore
I have just tried using a moca 2.5 bonded in my house and it generally works well except when I'm gaming online, I have random connection dropouts that make it almost impossible to play without me dropping all packets for about 1 seconds or if I'm hosting it just drops all the clients
I have pro grade access points at home that are sold to business and hotels and such that are all wired in to my network that go up to Wifi 6, get 600+ megabit anywhere in my apartment easily which is more than adequate. Originally got all that also with the idea of not needing ethernet everywhere. But there's still a lot of interference. especially because i'm in an appartment and I have competing access points all around me. Local ISP started selling wifi repeaters to their customers. If it doesn't move and it's remotely possible I still wire it up, 100 percent. Bandwidth alone is fine over modern wifi standards with latency and reliability wifi still leaves things on the table.
Thanks for sharing, competing AP’s definitely ruins the party for most people in apartments , Ethernet is obviously the best but wifi has come a long way, that’s all I was really trying to highlight tbh :)
my home network offers 400mbs wireless according to ookla. i bought a manhatten usb 2.0 ethernet adapter and a CAT5e cable. im only getting 98mbs wired now. my question is, is the lower mbs wired connection better for cloud gaming vs the faster wifi speed. any help would be welcomed.
That usb 2.0 ethernet adapter is bottlenecking your connection. Always connect your router ethernet cable to your motherboard RJ45 connector (pc back panel) for optimum connection
Cool video, but I have a random question. What camera are you using while you were walking around? The quality looks real good even with a handheld setup.
Answer: Ethernet
mm not really, IF you have wifi 6 I'd suggest that tbh..
@@SocialHardware naw. Too much added latency and especially jitter
6E might be worth it, but nothing before it unless you need raw throughput
But some cant afford wifi with wifi 6e so ethernet clears
I used lan for years, after getting WiFi 6 i never went back, i download and get faster speeds on wifi 6 i can download 2-4 gigs a min
@@SocialHardwarewireless internet produces radiation while gigabit cat7/cat8 ethernet does not
Ethernet. A physical wire will ALWAYS be better than wireless
100% but the gap is closing.. wifi 6e is a really good option if you have a complicated setup like mine :)
@@SocialHardwarenope. The gap is getting even bigger. Cat8 dominates all wifi.
Logically, a wire will always be better than wireless.
@@maalikserebryakov if u want faster and no laggy switch to ethernet, but if u don't want complicated cables then, switch to wireless
So 7$ cat6 ethernet is better than 70$ wifi6 card for my non wifi motherboard, am i right ?
😅
This guy takes so long to answer Simple question and when you’re transferring files and such, that’s not over Wi-Fi or ethernet
Always wired over wireless but wifi 6 closing the gap
cable is always the best but wifi6 isn't that bad.
agreed!

Simple answer. Yes. Mesh is great!

thanks for the latency numbers, for 1-3ms i won´t be running the cable ))
If my bandwidth only 100Mbps,
And my pc support 5ghz,
Should i change to ethernet cable?

3:29 thats not good for your health bro

Thumbnail looking good!
Thanks mate! Hope you like the video too!
Lots of talking to get to the meat of the matter
That's a nice apartment. Like all the windows
whats the pc?
Great video. Subscribed.
Ethernet is better for Windows 7 laptops (including Windows 10 or later) or old laptops

my laptop does not have rj45 conector, if i buy a good adapter 3.0 like tplink, will work fine or i have bottleneck too@@indrarizkipratama4231

Hey mate, thanks for stopping by. I was actually just using my iphone 14 pro with a rode wireless microphone, did the job pretty well :)
@@SocialHardware wow, now I know what I want for Christmas 🤣
very nice video, does a ethernet to usb adapter does the same job as the motherboard port? or i will lose speed and latency
this knob has no right rurn!
Use common sense
Skills is the best even you have wifi 10 or 1TBps ethernet if you have no skills in game better you play golf outside.
Way too long just show us the details. Fricken kangaroos
I use ethernet for these fixed devices like desktop, TV,...; and for these mobile devices I use wifi.
bros network stuff be like nasas
haha barely!
