alright guys, I am staying at a hotel for the summer.

I get a good dw speed, ul speed, and good ping according to speedtest. but when i play tf2 it gets laggy af.
so i did a ping test, and i got very different ping throught 5 tests, but all had one thing in common, very very high jitter,
then to my luck, i got in the software of the router, because the pw for it was admin. 8)

I changed up some shit and made my pc priority, but now, as i see, there are only 2 devices on the wifi, which doesnt make sense, there are like a couple hundred people here, and it aint no shitty hotel either.

It is in a distance of less than 20 miles of the servers (OC to LA) and i was playing sometimes at 26 ping and sometimes 800 as you will see in the snip of the cmd ping i ran to google.com with a bunch of other stuff. There is a pic of router settings showing how many people are connected, the pc im using right now isnt even listed, so i am sure that it isnt correct.. the other shows how i just tried to turn on mac filtering for only a couple of devices but it didnt do shit anyways so i turned it off because there is only 1 iphone on this entire network, the pc im sending it from can connect to the inet without being in a network, i am god.

1st: why the fuck is the router giving me very incorrect info....
2nd: i dont think there is a possible way to get this kind of a ping in this close distance, dafuq.

please help.

lower your expectations you're on hotel internet; if your phone is tether-able you could try playing on your 4G/LTE connection for better (though likely still terrible) ping/jitter.

probably have different routers serving separate areas of the hotel

well i was playing right now around 12-1 AM and i got little lag, some harsh spikes, but over all nice stable 39-30 ping, so not all the time
