Why is my ping in Minecraft different from the one in WTFast?

 
The ping you see in the game is not always accurate; instead, the game often shows the average of what you are having for a whole single session. Whereas, WTFast has accurate connection diagnosing tools that show you the exact latency and ping value that you are receiving at any given moment. This is the reason why you get different ping in the game and in WTFast. By using WTFast, you can better understand your connection status and can know when to take improvement measures.

How can I avoid jitter while playing Minecraft?

 
The difference between the average latency times of your data packets is the main reason why you face jitters. First off, you need to replace your wireless connection with a wired one because wireless connections can never give you the experience that wired connections offer. If you have already done that, then here are some other steps that you need to take to avoid jitters while playing Minecraft 1- Upgrade your internet, increase the bandwidth and speed of your internet because low speed often causes latency flux and jitter. Or you may adapt to a fiber-optics connection for better speed and higher bandwidths. 2- Your router might need some attention. Check your router and install powerful one with high bandwidth capacity because your internet speed greatly depends on the router. 3- Try dedicated gaming software that are especially developed to enhance the performance of your game by optimizing you connection.

Is ping and latency the same in Minecraft?

 
Ping and latency are two of the most common words in the gamers’ community and are often used interchangeably but they are slightly different in meaning. Whether in Minecraft or in any other multiplayer game, ping is the response time for a command that your connection takes. While, latency is the average total time your connection takes to send data packets to the designated Minecraft server. But, the effect of both is the same on Minecraft gameplay. The ping is twice the latency. If your latency increases by 50ms, your ping will increase by 100ms, resulting in lags, rubberbanding, or other network issues.

What is jitter and how does it affect while playing Minecraft?

 
Jitter is another common issue that gamers face while playing such fast-paced games like Minecraft. Jitter refers to sudden and random occurrence of lags or sudden jerks and shakes in your player while playing. Though it happens just for a second or two, it matters a lot in Minecraft. Jitters occur when latency changes frequently. It might go unnoticed for a regular internet user but if you are playing Minecraft, your game might face serious lags and you might get killed before shooting the enemy.

What is Ping time and how does it affect my gaming experience in Minecraft?

 
Ping time basically refers to the reaction time consumed in getting the response for any command that you enter. Your data travels to the Minecraft server, gets a response from the server, and then brings that response back to you. The time taken to complete this 2-way journey is known as ping time. If your ping time is faster (showing a low number), this means that your connection is responsive. It is important to have a lower ping time in multiplayer games like Minecraft. Therefore, the more responsive your connection, the faster your ping time will be. And hence, you’ll have a smoother gaming experience while playing Minecraft.

What is a traceroute, what impact does it have on Minecraft gameplay?

 
Whenever you are connected to the Minecraft server, your data travels from your computer to the destination server as make any command while you are playing online. This journey forms a traceroute and tells you how many servers and computers did your data packets pass by while reaching the final Minecraft server. This history of the route is known as round-trip. Now, whenever you data packets face any hop or interruption while reaching the final server, the traceroute identifies that interruption as well. Traceroute has a great impact on your gameplay because the longer the traceroute, the more interruption it will encounter. This results in higher ping time and hence, you might face lags and delays during the gameplay. Therefore, a shorter and less complicated traceroute is always better when you are playing a real-time game like Minecraft.

What does ‘ms’ stand for and what does it mean?

 
ms is the abbreviation for milliseconds. It is actually the measuring unit for ping time – your ping time is measured in milliseconds (1000ms = 1 second). In multiplayer mode, you must have noticed some numbers at any corner of your screen that keep changing while playing Minecraft. One of those numbers has ‘ms’ written next to it. That is actually the ping time which shows your connection statistics. If you are having a ping value less than 80ms, it means your connection is fairly responsive. It will allow you more hits per second. While, a ping value greater than 120ms indicates a less responsive connection.

What is Rubberbanding in Minecraft?

 
While playing Minecraft in multiplayer mode, you might have noticed random jerky movements of you player. These movements are a result of rubberbanding effect. In rubberbanding, your player bounces a few steps back and then moves forward again as if someone pulled your character through a rubber band and released it again.

What are ping spikes? Do they affect my gameplay in Minecraft?

And then came back to 45ms within a second. This hike is called a ping spike and it can severely affect your gaming experience while you are in the middle of a crucial level in Minecraft.
