Thank you. My speed jumped from 15mb to 50 Mb 😀

[@stevecroos1179]

What did you do? Did u use the last technique?

[@ckoul5351]

Thank you very much. It really made a difference by doubling the connection speed of my Switch. From 10 to 20, maybe it will make a difference in handheld online sessions.

[@har1ss]

Well, I did speed test on my phone, it reached to 98mbps. Then, I connected to switch, roughly I could get was 36mbps (the highest). Probably, you are right. The switch wifi is not up to the current standard

[@tsunami-.-]

i went from 248 kbps, to 2.8 mbps, this helped a lot!! thanks :)

[@ItsKeysama]

Thank You, I live in a apartment with my parents and my room is right next to there's and they have the router in there room so I'm glad that I switch to 5G

[@triple466]

Thanks bro i was a 20mb now im at 50mbs. The crazy thing is my internet is fiber optic 300mbs the switch needs better wifi card

[@dim5278]

THIS HELPED SO MUCH THANK YOU IM SUBBING

[@TheMinenationcraft]

I have 200 MB’s but on switch I only get 50 MB’s like wtf

[@RyanElliott2005]

Cheaper Wifi chip maybe

[@falshion1837]

This is the second video I've seen suggesting switching the MTU to 1500. It would be helpful to know why this could work better than 1400. From what I've researched so far, it seems the MTU should match your router's MTU for optimal speed?

[@laeviga-sunstrider]

Right. It's kind of wild that it defaults to 1400 when most other devices are defaulting closer if not right at 1500. The reason for why this may improve your internet connection is because the Maximum Transmission Units is larger per packet. Like, if the internet were a highway and the vehicles moving along it are the packets that devices are sending and receiving, then increasing the MTU is like having more passengers per vehicle and optimizes the traffic with less vehicles overall.

[@ducksauce4731]

Bro thanks you so much 🙏

[@nullnut563]

my router never prioritizes my consoles so this was a nice boost

[@yuasakura8606]

I changed MTU to 1500 and it changed from an hour to 10mins, 1mps to 8mps. Its not as good as everyone else's but it was a change for me

[@kristienieves2091]

Thanks so much it took away 3 hours
