How Gaming Routers Prioritize Real Time Gaming Traffic | Invision Game Community
Gaming routers enhance online gaming by prioritizing real-time traffic through features like Quality of Service (QoS) and device-based prioritization. These technologies manage network resources to reduce latency and ensure a smoother experience, especially when multiple devices compete for bandwidth. While gaming routers can significantly improve local network performance, overall online gaming quality also depends on internet connection, ISP, server distance, and game server performance.
Why it's important to regularly restart your router
Regularly restarting your router is an easy step to ensure it performs at its best. This simple maintenance task can help improve overall network performance.
Solana Trims Per-Block Compute as It Steps Down to 350ms Slots
Solana's Mainnet is reducing its slot time from 400 milliseconds to 350 milliseconds, which will also decrease the per-block compute ceiling. This change aims to increase scheduling opportunities without a proportional increase in per-second compute allowance. The network is also adjusting per-slot budgets for account writes, votes, and data allocation.
