They should actually set the speed slider to 9 and figure out the right amount of "Data" lines to copy and paste into it and use a upload speed monitor program and monitor their upload speed and see what upload speed net tools udp flooder is sending the data out at and figure out a stable lag speed that works the best for them.
You can't leave the old lag switch method turned on that long or anywhere close to 20 minutes for console gaming, unless you want to get disconnected.
Yeah but there is no logical point of having weak lag... if you don't set the speed slider to ten the lower you go the less lag effect you get. The overall point of lag in the first place is to actually full on lag either yourself for glitching purposes or the entire other lobby (if your host). If you set the speed slider to say four for example the lag will be the slightest noticeable thing there is, maybe from a three bar to a two bar, if that. UDP flooder also floods your router with data which isn't the healthiest thing for your router, over time it can cause damage to both your router and your modem. On the other hand, lag switches which use ethernet cords are more safe because they just straight forward break the circuit hence producing lag for either yourself or the rest of the lobby if you are host, they don't flood your router with random information to produce the lag. UDP flooder was actually MADE to cause damage or flood OTHER routers/modems, not your own. People just found out it does so as well and started using it as a secondary source of lag.
