    dude what country are u from
    im from Philippines and im also using 4G connection but on a wifi modem (10.6 Mbps average speed)
    it is usually intended for mobile use and that is the fastest commercially available wireless internet connection here.
    aside from lagging every once in a while and basically being slower than other players i can play fine

    the reason that i could think of why ur game became slow is maybe because u are connecting through a mobile device
    and ur mobile device probably have background apps running and using internet at the same time
    another reason would be the use of a mobile hotspot since everything has to go through ur phone before it reaches ur pc

    or maybe ur not used to a slow gameplay like me

    Well if you get 20 mbps and your client is slow, it's your computer's problem.

    You're talking about bandwidth here. Mabi doesn't require that much, so having 40 vs 5 won't have any significant impact.
    What you should actually check is your latency, which can go pretty high depending on the area you're in.

    4G (which is less than 5G duh and regardless) is mainly for access to information on the internet, not for gaming of any kind from a computer (even with naggle disabled). People use G for accessing websites and watching videos or listening to music, basic stuff basically. If you don't at least have wifi from an actual ISP you're kinda screwed.

    Sorry pal. -pat pat-

    Nope, because that is only one of several factors. The amount of information Mabi sends is actually staggering and ridiculous, and it's not even a high def game! It's badly optimized and will screw anyone over from far distances.

    But if you are a wallflower that does NOT raid or battle of any kind you'll be fine. Marketcourruptnogi.

    The amount of data being sent/received is still far under 5mbps tho... I managed to reach 20kbps (populated area / fighting)
    Wallflowering ? No thanks, I need my planters to grow cool beans.

    @OP, there is probably nothing you can do about the game being slow when using 4G
