Online Network Speeds

Your internet speeds don't have much to do with disconnects. Wifi and wireless signals in general are prone to interference. If the interference is significant enough, you can lose connection. That's why it's always advised to play wired when possible, there is no interference that way. Especially if you live in a heavy traffic environment like an apartment complex where everybody is using wifi, the chances of this happening increases.

Stop playing online using wi-fi. That will probably solve many issues for many people.

Wired = significantly less likelihood of interference, but not no interference.

Wired isn’t really an option otherwise that’s the route I’d go. This is really just differentiating between the 2 options I have.

In a normal home network with decent cables, you should have next to none interference. But you're right, it's still possible statistically speaking.

I doubt the 5GHz signal strength would lead to more disconnects, it would just mean that it has to resend a few packets from the router that don’t make it. Trade off is that it’s faster inside your network.

Yes and also try to avoid running them alongside power
I don’t know enough about them but I’ve never understood those range extenders that’s send a signal along your electricity lines for this reason. Maybe I’m missing something?

I have the same problem for both wifi and lan connection

You arent gonna notice a difference gaming online between download speeds. 80-100 mbps isnt gonna look or feel any different then 24 mbps.
Unless of course you are downloading the game or an update to the game.

I actually work for the local cable/ internet company and Mine did the same thing early on...I couldnt finish a game and suffered losses...with 100% signal...65mbps...ended up being the coax cable for my modem was old and worn....nothing to do with the server but troubleshooting helped me for what its worth
