Why is my ping so high (Lan)?

I have recently moved and we have a very bad line (5k).

Since I have a WLAN block, I connected my Ps4 to the LAN cable that hangs on the repeater (approx. 20m from the router).

So now on my Ps4 I have a better internet connection with Wi-Fi than with Lan. With Lan I always get a 1100 ping at fortnite. With Wi-Fi I always have 40-80

Wodran is that I have such a high ping with Lan.

I get the high ping every 3 minutes and stops after about 20 seconds.

Bad lan cable dirty worn ports router has slow lan ports… Can come from a lot

It could It is that you simply have a bad LAN cable. There are different types that "transfer the Internet" at different speeds.

Then there are the 20 meters of cable, the longer the cable, the more the Internet loses

There can be many different reasons for this. Vll your cable is broken. Vll also something wrong in the network card.

Then the repeater will have poor reception. Because better than the reception from the repeater to the router, the line is no longer no matter how you connect the PS4 to it.

PS: To the people who wrote bad cables. Ethernet is a digital connection. That means it works or it does not work. There are no gradations in between.

Eh, no.

Even cables of the CAT5 series are gigabit capable.

The bigger problem will be the repeater. It may not have good reception or if it goes over DLAN it is used in a multiple socket strip.

Bad lan cable dirty worn ports

wouldn't affect latency. Maximum packet loss, or a connection would not be possible at all.

slow lan ports

doesn't change latency either. Transfer rate is another issue

I'm sorry, but your part about the cable is nonsense. 100m are no problem with copper!

So on a lan cable there are 5 contacts at each end, if several of them are damaged or dirty, there may also be delays or internet problems. Broken contacts are more likely to result from bad and cheap cables.

Nah, that's not how it works. The cards negotiate the speed and it is already clarified how many wires are available.
