Hey everyone,
I've been experiencing high ping while playing Fortnite from Greater Noida, UP, and it's really affecting my gameplay. I've tried a few basic troubleshooting steps like restarting my router and closing background applications, but nothing seems to help.
Does anyone have any tips or tricks to reduce ping specifically for players in India? Are there any specific settings or configurations that I should be aware of? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
Here are some tips to reduce your ping in Fortnite while playing from Greater Noida:
Use a wired ethernet connection instead of WiFi if possible. Ethernet provides a more stable connection.
Optimize your PC by closing unnecessary background apps and processes that may be hogging bandwidth.
Try changing your matchmaking region in Fortnite settings. Middle East or Asia servers may give you better ping than Europe.
Contact your ISP (Airtel, Jio, etc.) and ask if they can optimize routing to Fortnite servers or look into any network issues on their end causing high latency.
As a temporary workaround, you can try using a gaming VPN service like ExitLag or WTFast which may provide a more optimized route to the Fortnite servers.
Ultimately, your ping depends a lot on your geographic distance to the game servers. Playing on local servers hosted in India or SEA region would be ideal but Fortnite doesn't have those currently. Hopefully the above tips help a bit. Let me know if you have any other questions!
