^ this. I quit trying to play online games when travelling. Couldn't handle the lag. And if it's a competative game: good luck. 😥

I play rocket league on switch at a crappy Marriott with about 8mbps and it seems to hold up okay. But sometimes it doesn’t, and single player games must be played.

Going to bump this, the last few hotels ive been at in have had some legit wireless, mixture of Hilton and Marriott. Ran afk macros in an mmo for an entire week whilst at the client and no disconnects. Also had a wired connection at a residence inn and had less than 20 ping in a bf1 server. Evidently things have changed, location makes a difference though.

They’re awful. That lag *literally* kills me...

hotel cable connection usually helps quite a bit

Evening! Dog owners who live in condo rentals downtown.. did you tell your landlord you had a dog? I’m in a rental with a lease that says no pets (i’m sure a common clause?) and i didn’t have any pets moving in. 6 months in, i got a puppy lol. I don’t want to invite potential conflict by updating my landlord, my lawyer partner says the no pets clause is void in toronto anyway - but I worry about a bad landlord reference if they find out i.e come for repairs.
