I am error
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I am currently on a wireless connection with round 75% connectivity. If I use Ethernet, will that help with lag when i play games that are 1 bar? How will it help if at all?

I depends how laggy the host's connection is because if he laggs you and the game laggs. Once hard wired you will notice a difference when the host's connection is good because the people who have a laggy connection will have a slower reaction time than you, meaning you will shoot him first even though he already fired his weapon. In the end it all depends on the host connection.

Don't Fear the Repear
U guyz if u have a ps3 and have cod4 u are screwed...... Why? Because Xbox360 has Community servers or whatever there called so U most likely have to host a game yourself for it to not lagg unless ur provider suks. Wireless also has many connection interrupted problems sometimes. Yes u can have ur friend host and u might get 4 bars but 1-3 bars always suk i have 3 bars most of the time and it still has its LAGG moments this also explains why xbox360 is easier to no scope on cuz if ur against people with 4 bars while u have 4 bars its so ****in easy to noscope not even funny.
