What should you have speed and duplex set to for fortnite

1 answer

For playing Fortnite or any online game, the best settings for speed and duplex generally depend on your network hardware and infrastructure. Here are some recommendations:

  1. Speed: Set your network speed to the maximum supported by your router and network card. Most modern devices and routers operate at Gigabit speeds (1000 Mbps).

  2. Duplex: Set the duplex mode to "Full Duplex". This allows data to be sent and received simultaneously, offering better performance compared to half duplex.

Summary:

  • Speed: Auto-negotiation (allow it to automatically detect the highest speed, ideally 1000 Mbps)
  • Duplex: Full Duplex

Ensure your router and network card are capable of these settings. Additionally, a wired connection (Ethernet) is typically more stable and faster compared to Wi-Fi, which is highly recommended for online gaming.
