Hello, complete wireshark rookie here. i experienced some issues with an online game i play and would like to use wireshark to plot my latency. i tried to track the udp filter on frame.time_delta_displayed but the data generated can't be what im looking for. Can someone guide me in the right direction? asked 09 Jan '14, 09:07  Nick SB |
One Answer:
see my answer to a similar questions.
Your problem is the same. You can't just plot the delta of two UDP frames, as you don't know if two consecutive frames are 'corresponding' request/response frames (see the comments in my answer). So, without a deep understanding of the game protocol in use, there is no way to calculate the 'latency', 'ping time' or whatever that value is called in your game.
