Playing among us with my Netgear n300 extender

Here is the details about Netgear extender n300 device. Among us has become one of the most played games in recent weeks and almost everyone has hopped on to it more as a trend rather as an interest. The game turned out to be quite interesting though and has become really popular. The problem with the game is that the number of people joining the game all of a sudden made its servers get loaded with a lot of work. Also, it is a 2d game connecting people from around the world. The servers aren’t that great yet and therefore the internet ping is very high.

Due to the large ping, the lag is continuous and hinders gameplay a lot. The problem was partially on my WiFi router as well. It had a scanty range and therefore when I moved a bit far away from it while being in the flow of the game, I lagged out and was thrown out of the room for having a ping too large. I hated it whenever it happened. Therefore I decided to solve my problem using the Netgear wifi extender n300 setup.
