latency.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Again, we\u2019re sure you\u2019re wondering what it actually means and quite frankly why you should be bothered. It\u2019s one of those \u2018need to know\u2019 words that will make life so much easier when it comes to ensuring you\u2019re getting the most out of your internet connection.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Latency is quite simply the length of time it takes information to get from its source to you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Think about the last time you searched on Google and the delay between submitting the search and receiving the results, the delay is latency. So, the lower the latency the better it is, unlike, <a href=\"https:\/\/exa.net.uk\/what-is-bandwidth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bandwidth<\/a> where we literally can\u2019t get enough.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-37f78b0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"37f78b0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Why is latency important?<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c4b4f7e custom-posts elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c4b4f7e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People often assume that good internet performance is a result of higher bandwidth, however that is not always the case. High bandwidth and low latency is the key to having great connectivity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If latency is the length of time it takes information to get from its source to you, then bandwidth is the amount of that information sent per second. If you\u2019re with us so far, great. If not, don\u2019t worry too much, hopefully it will become clearer.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just to explain further, latency is often referred to as delay, ping rate or lag.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have children, then you\u2019ve probably heard them saying their video game is \u2018lagging\u2019. What they\u2019re actually referring to is high latency which is causing a slow reaction time on the game. Whether it\u2019s making a crucial tackle on FIFA or responding to an enemy attack on Call of Duty when it comes to game play, quick reactions are essential and having a high latency line can be extremely frustrating.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With this in mind, low latency becomes business or school critical when you are using services such as VoIP and video conferencing. No one wants to be on that all important customer call and experience a poor connection, not only is it annoying it can also be extremely embarrassing when you\u2019re trying to make the right impression.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8aa912f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"8aa912f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How can you reduce your latency?<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4ea2f60 custom-posts elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4ea2f60\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This all depends on the situation. It goes without saying your internet connection and router at home won\u2019t be the same spec as the office and therefore things will be a bit slower and less reliable.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, for those currently working from home there are some really easy solutions that will help. A good place to start is either moving closer to your router or connecting to it with an ethernet cable. It might sound obvious but objects can block your wifi signal so moving closer should improve your line of connectivity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re about to go on that all important video call and want to ensure it runs smoothly, another thing you can do is close any other browsing windows. If you have anything running in the background that\u2019s bandwidth heavy this can have a major impact on your latency.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The next thing to do is check your bandwidth. As discussed earlier, bandwidth and latency are interconnected so if you have low bandwidth this could be causing you to have high latency.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a business or educational setting a good starting point would be to check your router and make sure it\u2019s the right spec for the job. A router for a commercial setting needs to be far more robust and therefore one from home just really won\u2019t cut the mustard. Old routers can also affect your connection strength, speed and reliability, so if your kit is old it might be time to upgrade.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If all else fails and reducing latency is critical for your business, you might just need to review your connection. Ultimately the best option to minimise the delay will be to upgrade to a service that offers you more bandwidth and therefore increases your internet speed. With superfast broadband widely available in the UK sourcing a better service shouldn\u2019t be a problem and with the imminent roll out of ultrafast broadband latency issues should quickly become a thing of the past, for most.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3000983 elementor-widget__width-initial
