Hey all,
I am a CSGO Player and love to play a load of competitive.
Here is the problem, My sister is a heavy user (watching online movies and streaming music).
My ping becomes really bad like over 300 and there is absolutely no way to play on it,
I was wondering if there is any chance you can have 2 lines going to one house and how should I convince my parents

*I have to use my hotspot on my phone PLAN and that is costing a absolute fortune*.

Thanks
VenomTech

As to my knowledge you cannot have two separate internet plans in the one house, sorry

The only thing I think you would be able to do is throttle the bandwidth/connection to your sister to prevent her using it all at once.

You are able to (only on some routers) throttle bandwidth based on the IP address assigned to the device.

If your internet sucks in the first place, you'll still have problems after doing this anyway.
What are you current internet speeds (ping, download, upload)?

If you were thinking about just getting like a linksys router then go for it it should make your internet better depending if anyone else is on it!
