I’ve had to do it a lot. Several times I was in the middle of a game and it began lagging like crazy so I had to quick jump into my settings and turn off the Wi-Fi because chess works better for me on cellular data. I have lost many games due to lag.
Poor internet connection is your problem, I never had similar issue

Your device, will try to use the best connection it can and it can move between wifi and cellular data. That move between the types can cause additional lag, especially if it's happening very often. I suggest only keeping one of the data sources on when playing on site to eliminate the bouncing between networks.
