2. Bufferbloat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bufferbloat

   Bufferbloat can also cause packet delay variation (also known as jitter), as well as reduce the overall network throughput. When a router or switch is configured to use excessively large buffers, even very high-speed networks can become practically unusable for many interactive applications like voice over IP (VoIP), audio streaming , online ...

3. Netcode - Wikipedia

   Once these remote inputs arrive (suppose, e.g., 45 ms later), the game can act in two ways: if the prediction is correct, the game continues as-is, in a totally continuous way; if the prediction was incorrect, the game state is reverted and gameplay continues from the corrected state, seen as a "jump" to the other player or players (equivalent ...

4. ping (networking utility) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ping_(networking_utility)

   Ping operates by means of Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) packets. Pinging involves sending an ICMP echo request to the target host and waiting for an ICMP echo reply. The program reports errors, packet loss , and a statistical summary of the results, typically including the minimum, maximum, the mean round-trip times, and standard ...

5. Client-side prediction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Client-side_prediction

   The client accepts the new state, and reapplies the inputs not yet processed by the server, completely eliminating visible desynchronization issues in most cases. The earliest known first-person shooter to use client-side prediction is Duke Nukem 3D , which had it built-in since the January 29, 1996 shareware release.

6. Latency (engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latency_(engineering)

   Latency, from a general point of view, is a time delay between the cause and the effect of some physical change in the system being observed. Lag, as it is known in gaming circles, refers to the latency between the input to a simulation and the visual or auditory response, often occurring because of network delay in online games.

7. PathPing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PathPing

   The advantages of PathPing over ping and traceroute are that each node is pinged as the result of a single command, and that the behavior of nodes is studied over an extended time period, rather than the default ping sample of four messages or default traceroute single route trace. The disadvantage is that it takes a total of 25 seconds per hop ...
