Network setup for consistent NBA 2K27 online timing

1. Wired ethernet to the console. This is the single biggest improvement for most players.
2. Pause console and PC downloads while playing, including background game updates.
3. Check that nothing else on the network is saturating upload, which affects latency more than download.
4. Reboot the router occasionally rather than never.
5. Only then consider per-device quality-of-service settings.

• Stable latency matters more than low peak bandwidth.
• Consistency across a full evening matters more than a good speed test.
• If two players in the same house both play, expect interaction and plan around it.

We ship a conservative online profile as a starting point, and we describe network conditions as outside our control, because they are. A script that claims to eliminate the effect of latency is claiming something no input device can deliver.
