Delay ingame

My flatmate and I are having issues playing together from the same wifi, I presume that's the issue for some reason. We tried other games like cs2 and dota2 and there were no issues at all. Both of us are having our screens frozen for 3/4 seconds in it happens often, like almost every minute. Any help would be appreciated.

    Apologies for the late response. I think the issue is that you're both playing over a wireless connection. You could try changing the wireless channel for one of the devices. That may help. You'll need access to the router for that. Also, check to see if UPnP is enabled. There should be a setting for that in your router as well.

    Hi there, @amanovicC 

    Most likely, the issue is both of you being on wireless. Does the delay happen if only one of you are playing? Also, can either of you try using a wired connection instead?

  • It lags only when we are both in game, doesn’t have to be in same loby or separate. We are both using gaming laptops, so not really an option for us a Lan cable as we don’t have a ports in our rooms.
