Fix High Ping on Battlegrounds Mobile (BGMI)

Here are the Best Solutions to Fix High Ping & Game Lag on Battlegrounds Mobile India

1. Change the Network

Ping always does not depend on internet speeds but it depends on server response for the request sent from the mobile. An internet with low speeds may have a fast response time and vice versa. So, it is important to choose an Internet Service Provider (ISP) that provides you with a faster server response for a given location, as the response may vary for locations. So try to just change your network, switch data card, connect to a different Hotspot or Change your ISP and see if the network response is high and ping is low for smoother gameplay.

2. Change DNS Servers

Changing DNS Servers is not a very effective means to reduce the ping directly but can help to speed up the amount of time it takes to resolve domain nameservers. Thus changing the DNS can at times help to reduce ping indirectly. I recommend using 1.1.1.1 by Cloudflare, the DNS has global servers thus help reduce the ping and also any other network issue which you may face while playing the game.

The DNS bypass the ISP and connect to a 3rd party server that may have a lower response as compared to your network ping.

A network consists of a number of intricate factors that can cause the ping to fluctuate. The location of your mobile or router is also one such factor that can cause high ping. So just try to change your location while playing the game. Look for places less crowded with objects, try playing closer to the router, change router location and play the game if possible at higher elevations in your house.
