Can one improve his ping with the help of a Wlan amplifier?

I have a question about our Wi-Fi: In our home, the Wi-Fi is relatively often used (my parents work from home that's why every day the 2 pc's from my parents, my brother had a TV for the room with Playstation and everything else so W-lan "consumed" and I have a laptop and a mobile phone). Actually, I rarely play but when I play I often get excited about the bad connection 😅. It's like this: In the morning when everyone is sleeping or just on the phone I have a ping of 20 but if my brother ripped through the night I like to ping 200 which is bad if you play online games like mincraf, fortnite and co. Gambles. Now I've gotten a Wi-Fi amplifier and now to my question: Improves my ping? Or do you have other tips on how I could solve the problem.

PS: Something like: Stop gambling does not help!

Those who find spelling errors may keep them 😁

An amplifier does not help, because it still has to go through it. So either a second Wi-Fi just for you (this is a cheap access point in addition to the router) or even better a second DSL connection. But of course it costs money every month.

Thanks, what if I connect my W-lan repeater to my PC via a LAN cable?

What is that supposed to help? Your PC already has Wi-Fi. If then right with the cable to the router.

You do not understand the meaning of the amplifier. He makes no faster Internet, but serves to illuminate Funklecken.

No, the ping will get worse.

If the WLAN signal strength is sufficient for you in the room, please do not install a repeater, because repeaters only increase the range and improve the stability in the edge area of the WLAN.

But you have capacity problem, i. The posted Internet speed is not enough for you, especially if you all at the same time off or gambling.

Suggestion: Make large downloads only on day / night times, if the other family members do not need the Internet, then it should continue to be enough.

It works quite well if you use the Internet alone, so your Wi-Fi works properly.

Think about what a repeater does: it repeats all the traffic because you send it to him and sends it on.

Which conclusion do you come from?

Ed

That you could have spelled that nicer.

Ed

Thank you.

No. If "self-thinking" hurts, then I can't change it. 😊

First and foremost, I can't change anything about cardboard noses, which try to "read" an emphasis on written text - in order to interpret "niceness".
