🤔What is ping and why is it not important?

Ping is the time it takes for information to travel from your computer to a remote server and back, measured in milliseconds. It allows you to assess the latency of the network connection. It is important to note that ping is not directly related to connection speed. T

his depends primarily on the speed of your internet, packet routing, and other factors, followed by ping.

If you are seeing ping times of 2000 ms or connection failures, this may be related to network or router settings problems. In this case, it is worth trying to restart the router and check the ping again.

However, ping can affect speed in the following case: if the ping is constantly high. For example, if you are in China and the server is in Russia, the ping will be around 300 ms due to the physical distance. With such a high ping, data transfer speed can be significantly reduced, despite the fact that the connection speed is high on both ends.

I hope you now have a better understanding of what ping is and how it affects the connection.
