First, ensure you’ve got decent bandwidth – 15Mbps+ and 5Mbps+ for download/upload speeds. A wired connection is always better than wireless. But if a wireless network is your only option, be sure to connect as close to the router as possible, or select a different network channel. On your computer, close down any extraneous applications and browsers. Most players will do fine on Google Chrome, but Firefox and Microsoft Edge are also worth considering. Adjusting graphics settings (or selecting a lower gaming quality) can help. Make sure your operating system and web browser are up to date. Using a personal computer rather than a communal one may also help your cause. If you’re still having issues, test out another online casino platform or browser – some websites and software run more smoothly than others. And if your friends aren’t having the same experience, consider troubleshooting your own connection before giving up on the game.

Next, ensure your Internet connection is stable – use an Ethernet cable if you can (not Wi-Fi). If Wi-Fi is all you’ve got, try connecting to your router or finding a less crowded channel. On the device end, shut down any unnecessary open applications to reduce data usage and the device’s CPU load. Chrome generally performs well, though if you’re experiencing buffering issues, give Firefox and Microsoft Edge a shot. Whenever you can, avoid playing on your phone and opt for a computer. And finally, some casinos can be played more smoothly using servers located in different regions. Good luck!

First, connect your computer directly to your router with an Ethernet cable; Wi-Fi won’t cut it. Quit all other open programs and tabs. Use Chrome or Firefox, as some browsers are more stream-friendly than others. On smartphones, consider playing in-browser on a tablet or laptop instead. Lower your in-game video settings to ensure a smoother rather than more detailed picture. And look into where the casino hosts its servers; those physically near you will probably have the lowest latency.

To reduce stuttering in online casino games, check your internet connection and speed, close any unnecessary applications and web pages, lower your game’s graphic quality, ensure that your device’s operating system and drivers are updated, use another browser, connect via a wired Ethernet cable, and test other websites and games to verify that the issue is not with the game or casino server.
