Bufferbloat, or the massive sudden ping spikes it causes in online games, is one of the biggest issues that gamers face. There are ways to address the issue as I showed in previous videos https://youtu.be/o-g2P3R84dw but these have limits. To overcome those limits you need hardware which has more power and a software which transforms that hardware into a router. PfSense seemed like the obvious choice (as some of you suggested in the past). However while PfSense is a really powerful firewall and not that complex to setup, I just can't recommend it to gamers - and I will tell you why in this video. ► Support Battle(Non)Sense: https://www.patreon.com/battlenonsense ► RTSS: https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/rtss-rivatuner-statistics-server-download.html ► Previous video: https://youtu.be/xsXFUVYPIx4 ► Next Video: https://youtu.be/VKctNLDmzSk ► Connect with me: ➜ FB: facebook.com/BattleNonSense ➜ twitter: twitter.com/BattleNonSense ➜ email: [email protected] ► Outro Music: Many of you asked for the name of the outro song. Sadly I have to tell you that it is not a "song". It is a custom made music to be used for intros/outros that I bought a while ago. #Bufferbloat #PfSense #FQ_CoDel
