WiFi introduces much more latency than using an ethernet cable.
- Players encountering high latency while playing on a WiFi connection may want to try switching to a wired connection to improve performance.
- Switching to a wired connection is an important first troubleshooting step that can rule out WiFI strength or stability as a cause for the latency.
- Players that cannot switch to a wired connection, may want to read through the Network Setup: Wifi v. Wired Connections[help.bungie.net] portion of this guide for suggestions on how to improve wireless connections.

While Destiny can be played with a strong and stable WiFi connection, many players have found that using WiFi can increase the likelihood that they will lose their connection to Destiny’s services.
WiFi is susceptible to a variety of different sources of interference, and introduces additional latency to a player's network connection.
- The process of sending data wirelessly takes time and increases latency. This may increase the total latency of a player's network to the point where they encounter latency, packet loss, or error code disconnects from Destiny.
- WiFi connections use one of several frequencies – called channels – to transmit data. If more than one WiFi network is trying to use the same channel it can create congestion that slows down network traffic. It can even cause data to be lost or the connection to be interrupted.
- If multiple devices are connected to the same wireless network and attempting to reach the internet at the same time they can interfere with each other.
- The distance and layout of a player's console from their WiFi source can also negatively impact signal strength and stability.
- Some home appliances and consumer electronics, such as microwave ovens, can directly interfere with a network's WiFi signal.
Some WiFi setups can provide a strong, stable connection to Destiny. To optimize a wireless connection to Destiny, please try the following steps:
- Move the console as close as possible to the WiFi source.
- Turn off or disable all other devices connected to the WiFi network while playing Destiny.
- Avoid obstructions between the console and the WiFi source whenever possible, especially large appliances or other electronics.
- Switch the WiFi router to an un-congested wireless channel.
- Disable the WiFi router's "Channel Bonding" feature to help avoid interference. Depending on the type of router, this feature may be called "Channel Width (20/40Mhz)", "Wireless Bandwidth", or "Channel Bonding".
- Contact the router manufacturer to ask about advanced settings that can improve the wireless signal strength and stability.
