Browser Games, Loading Speed & Routers

[Darkhhour]

Greeting, first of all apologies if this is not the correct sub forum i wasn't sure exactly which category these questions belong to.. 

 

Onto my questions.. I've recently picked up browser games while taking a much needed break from larger MMO gaming and after a few months of this i need to try to fix some issues i am having..

 

1. The game has a lot of in-game menus and stages each requiring a loading screen so i want to find a way to speed this up (if it's possible and not a server issue) some days it loads alright but most of the time it can take a couple of minutes to load, when it loads slow i tend to miss things for the in-game events each day.

 

2. Is it worth buying a new router? Currently using Technicolour TG797n V3 which was sent by my ISP and i never considered it to be an issue in my internet speed until lately as i've run out of other ideas.

 

3. Is there a way to prioritize my browser to receive bandwidth over other programs / computers on the same network? Currently one other computer on the same network playing the same game. Using a mix of EDGE and Chrome and both seem to run the same.

 

I regularly run CCleaner, Malewarebytes and AVG scans to keep my system running smooth.

 

PC Specs

 

Win 10 pro 64-bit

If anyone can give any advice and help soothe my rage when i see a loading screen it would be much appreciated!

 

Thanks in advance.

Currently, I am rocking the RT-N66R from Asus. It's been pretty darn good, as long as you keep an eye on the firmware updates. This is the link to the website, you can pick it up semi cheap on amazon. https://www.asus.com/ae-en/Networking/RTN66R/
