    This will not fix latency. Latency is amount of time that a packet takes to travel between you and the destination. Nothing affects that other than network congestion and the length it has to travel.

    What happens in the video is you will send out TCP ACK packets faster, but you also generate MUCH more network traffic coming from you, and therefore coming back to you, which would probably cancel out anything that would be gained from this.

    Your ping time may seem better, but the packets will still travel the same path, and now you are generating more of them, at a quick pace than you normally would. This isn't going to change anything.

    Think of it like a traffic jam, cars go down a road at a restricted speed so that it can flow perfectly.
    If you start sending cars down there faster, the cars will crash and or get caught in a traffic jam.
