LAG is mostly used between the router and a device that supports LAG, like some NAS:

Since gaming consoles don't support LAG, gaming isn't supported on it.
On a gaming PC, might be possible:

thanks for the info.

Game consoles aren't supported BUT if you aggregate your router and a compatible SWITCH that your console is connected to; the data will be sent and received 2x faster from your console.
