Lag Switch
Answer: A lag switch is a piece of equipment installed on a home network that allows you to insert delays into the flow of local traffic to the Internet. Lag switches are normally used by unscrupulous players wanting to cheat at online video games. Lag switches are unrelated to normal network switches.
When a lag switch is activated, the device runs for a few seconds on a timer, effectively blocking the connection between the local game device and the Internet for that temporary period. The device causes the person using a lag switch to appear to their opponents as frozen while in fact they are still able to locally make moves to gain advantages in the game. When the lag switch timer expires, the local game device will re-synchronize with the online game , which appears to opponents in a sudden burst.

pumped it up to 100 and after a little bit everyone in my session was frozen... then i stopped the lagging program and of course it crashed but ill be damned after about one minute the whole lobby disconected... bravisimo devolper i love you man this does work and i assume the crashing has to do with the execution of the lag protocol which is unavoidable...
If this app lags your Internet, then it's because you have a poor Internet connection to start with. This app can't come close to touching my connection. If you truly want to lag your Internet, focus on jamming upload speeds by uploading huge videos to YouTube, again though, if you've got a decent broadband connection and router this method might not work either.
The people who are complaining and saying things like, "You have to do a survey, it's a scam." All you have to do is just answer a question, and that's it. The dev needs to make money somehow. But it is hilarious walking into a public WiFi zone and lagging everything. Earlier today I lagged my brothers game and got extremely upset because he got disconnected. The newer games will kick you if you use a lag switch by the way.
For everyone that is reading this,there seemed to be some misconceptions in the comments section.First of all,if you are trying to figure out how to use it on you PlayStation,Xbox,and what not.don't be dumb,there's only one freaking switch on the app,press it.second of all,if your wondering why it makes you lag on your stupid call of duty.read the title again please,it says lag switch.if you keep crashing out of your game, lay low on the power,it doesn't always have to be at 100.and if it doesnt work dont use it. I use it all the time and it lags like hell. Nobody cares about your flawless internet.
Downloaded this app thinking I was going to use it but it kept telling me to take a survey to unlock the switch even though I completed the survey. Makes no sense why you need to do a survey to unlock the use of the app. Don't waste your time, find something that actually works.
Can someone explain to me why it shows that it takes data... It's giving me a data warning... It's shows that I've went through 25 gig with in 2 weeks and I only use it stop someone who's hacked into my internet when I'm busy on it... Can someone tell me why it takes data if its only suppose to slow it down
Take survey every 5 min. They want tmi in the survey. Its like u looking for a job type survey. Every time u want to use it guess what, survery asking your work history, race, income, school, single or married. How many kids. etc.. Na. Not getting the info u asking for.
Wonderful for GTA Online for getting into a public session by yourself, no more griefers ruining cargo shipments, etc. Would not recommend for any FPS like CoD or Battlefield, as it's just scummy to use this to gain the upper hand in a gunfight. But for avoiding toxic players in GTA Online, it's great.
I did a lot of trolling with video games and got money from it too so get your huslte on with this lag switch
I will be doing a review on YouTube demonstrating the effective works of this app. It works for games, it lags you and anyone on the same server especially when you put it on 100 power. The only flaws are that it logs you out of Wi-Fi after a while, it restarts your phone and it messes up the router after a while or if you get closer to the box. If those things could be fixed I would definitely put this before wifikill great job developers please don't get rid of this app. My YouTube is brandon and kimmy
It's terrible and it collects more data than a simple lag switch should need. It's a scam.
This app actually works. I use it on my xbox to get into public sessions by my self and it works very well. While this app fulfills my needs it may not fulfill yours.
It's a very usefull tool for getting into public lobbies solo in gta online after the patch. Serveys are annoying tho
This works perfect to knock people off public wifi, was at my gym getting less then 1mbps turned this on waited then 4 mins later back up to full speed. Everyone was off
This lag switch crashed the whole internet of my library, and they pay 2000$ a month on it
I think that it's a great app but the survey got to go plzz but other than that it's a great app I'm bout to troll my dad with it lol😂😂😂but for real can u take the survey off
I love it. Helps me get into a solo session for gta and do CEO work now and stuff. Recommending ti my friends
I have a YouTube channel on me using lag switch on xbox 360. I have a website for Xbox users so I can lagswitch and not get banned I been lagswitchibg since Halo 4. You can find my YouTube channel by looking up king of lag switch first video or punkdrummerkid13
I would pay to use the app. Plz stop with the surveys. I am now the king of spam on like 8 games. But the new update makes me need a survey everytime I use it. Please stop.
Worked great yesterday which was my first time using it. Today it keeps shutting my wifi off and disconnecting my xbox from the internet.
It's cool I turn on the switch and people start lagging but everytime I turn it on I get disconnected I don't know if it's the app or cause of my Wi-Fi even on 0 power it still disconnects me
Only works with power level 10 at most on Oneplus one. I love getting my brothers off the Internet with this when they're eating up bandwidth.
Every developer and console maker knows about lag switching and bans are rolling out. Its called "Network Manipulation". Read the terms and conditions. YOU WILL GET BANNED FOR USING LAG SWITCHES!
This app is a scam, it asking me to fill out the survey before I can access the lag switch
It's really works it's so awsome but don't download think it will give you a advantage in any games but still it's fun
It allowed me to lag myself out of the map on like 7 or 22 was awesome against people. Thank you
You're all a bunch of idiots if you think this "lag switch" turns your phone into an actual lag switch. I'm a prince from nigeria and I've trying to move money into the US. Hit me up so i can get your credit card info. Not even sure why it needs access to pictures when all its supposed to do is "lag"
