Ok, I tried to research on my own but needless to say the technical crap is hard to teach yourself. So let me see if I can put this question out there and deduce an average from the answers I get. Hopefully this is the right place to successfully get my questions answered.

ping test results

Pinging statistics for 192.168.1.254:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0%loss),
Approximate round trip times in Milli-seconds:
Minimum = 1ms, Maximum = 8ms, Average = 3ms

In case it matters I have an HP Beats 15 Notebook PC
Operating System(I think that is what its called) is Windows 10 Home

And one more question, when it comes to streaming videos do these numbers mean its good quality for the person viewing the video feed? Or I guess their specs and connection could probably influence that so let me rephrase, am I top quality on my end so that if they too were working with top quality it would be ideal quality video?

1280x720 15.12inFPS 39.4%CPU

I promise, I may be blonde but I am not stupid. This is just a whole new field for me and like I said computers seem to be the hardest subject matter I have found yet to teach yourself. So thank you nerds, geeks, and genuineness. I am grateful for your existence.

You have to ping-test the stream provider/server (twich/youtube etc) unless 192.168.1.254 is a computer in your network you want to stream to.

Possible highest quality will also be limited by your upload speed and your cpu's/gpu's capabilities of converting video on the fly,high pings would mean stalling if the buffer is not enough to keep it smooth,has to do with quality but only in the broad(all puns intended :p )sense.

15fps is a bit low for streaming. maybe the graphics card needs upgrading?

Your ping times are good. The connection speed has more to do with lag/stutter than anything. Go to youtube and play a video. Right click on the video and select "Stats for nerds". It will show your connection speed & if you're dropping frames.

I am still not clear what you are trying to do. Are you the one serving the video or are you watching video?
