Moving from apartment with wired 500 mbps to Wifi 600 mbps

How cooked am I?

Each unit has its own network… I’ve always had my own modem/router and at any given time it’ll just be my gaming PC utilizing it and maybe one other device (partners tablet or a streaming TV).

I am worried about FPS gaming like how I sometimes play OW2 or CSGO2. How about rocket league?

To clarify, partner and I are moving in together hence the change.

Currently I have wired connection for my PC and all other devices are WiFi (2 TVs (Roku and fire stick) and a PS4).

When we move in it’ll still be the same 2 TVs and only adding her laptop and tablet and she always is on WiFi only but with a very terrible shared apartment building connection.

New place is each units WiFi is its own…

How cooked depends on partner
But imho wired is more reliable then wi-fi

MP games don't need that much bandwidth to run properly on their servers. You'll be fine.

Speed isn’t the issue. Won’t latency be?

You can always run your own cables to the access point and plug in that way. I lived in an apartment where I ran my own wired network with the desktop, laptop and printer all having their own wired connection.

Wired is always better and more stable than WIFI. I tested this myself at my own house. I had more disruptions on WIFI versus Wired. Even after moving my router several times to try to get a stronger signal, wired worked better. Always use wired unless you cannot.

Correct. Tested this myself with my own network setup.
