How can I minimize ping?

Can I influence this at all, or does it mainly depend on the area? I play on the PS5 with a wired LAN connection, but the ping is so bad, even though we already pay a lot for internet. Would it make a difference if I change my contract and switch to a different provider?

You need to know what kind of access you have!
three seemingly only offer mobile tariffs, because fluctuating ping times, depending on location, are technically normal.
Look if you can get the internet over a cable. (Cable, dsl or glass fibre)

and why you absolutely use an outdoor router does not reveal to me either.

With fiberglass you can achieve a significantly lower ping. DSL and cables are quite the same.
Fiberglass generally offers more upload and is significantly less susceptible to interference from the technology.
But you can also take dsl or cable, depending on whether and at what speed it is available to you.

Make sure you know what’s available to you. Z.b. under check24.de.

If he’s bad overall, you can’t do much. Operator change can help but also go back. If it only affects individual servers, a VPN can help, then you will be routed differently and may get a better connection.
