[citation needed] The lower one's ping is, the lower the latency is and the less lag the player will experience. High ping and low ping are commonly used terms in online gaming, where high ping refers to a ping that causes a severe amount of lag; while any level of ping may cause lag, severe lag is usually indicated by a ping of over 100 ms.

Latency, from a general point of view, is a time delay between the cause and the effect of some physical change in the system being observed. Lag, as it is known in gaming circles, refers to the latency between the input to a simulation and the visual or auditory response, often occurring because of network delay in online games.
A ping of death is a type of attack on a computer system that involves sending a malformed or otherwise malicious ping to a computer. [1] In this attack, a host sends hundreds of ping requests with a packet size that is large or illegal to another host to try to take it offline or to keep it preoccupied responding with ICMP Echo replies. [2]
A single (double broadcast) ping to a network with 100 hosts causes the network to process 10 000 packets. If the payload of the ping is increased to 15 000 bytes (or 10 full packets in Ethernet) then that ping will cause the network to have to process 100 000 large packets per second. Send more packets per second, and any network would ...
RTT is a measure of the amount of time taken for an entire message to be sent to a destination and for a reply to be sent back to the sender. The time to send the message to the destination in its entirety is known as the network latency, and thus RTT is twice the latency in the network plus a processing delay at the destination.
Bufferbloat is the undesirable latency that comes from a router or other network equipment buffering too many data packets.Bufferbloat can also cause packet delay variation (also known as jitter), as well as reduce the overall network throughput.
According to Google Trends, search results for “did Joe Biden drop out” have peaked this week, and are spiking on Election Day, even though the president had dropped out of the 2024 race this ...
Graphical depiction of contributions to network delay. Network delay is a design and performance characteristic of a telecommunications network.It specifies the latency for a bit of data to travel across the network from one communication endpoint to another.
