Playing from Australia — latency optimisation tips?

#1

200ms+ ping to most game servers is my daily reality. Here's what I've found actually helps:

  1. Use Ethernet, never WiFi (obvious but worth saying)
  2. ExitLag or Mudfish VPN can shave 20-30ms on some routes
  3. Close everything in the background — even Discord overlay adds jitter
  4. Set your DNS to Cloudflare (1.1.1.1) instead of your ISP

Anyone else dealing with high latency? What games are actually playable at 200ms?

ExitLag genuinely helped me on Apex. Went from 35ms to 22ms on London servers. Not massive but in ranked every ms counts.
