Netgear Nighthawk XR300 Ping is horrible
Hi so I recently bought the XR300 and when doing so got a new modem from my ISP and everything connects great to the router but for some reason my ping on my Xbox One S is horrible and I lag out of games almost everytime. My Xbox use's the Wifi and I dont know what I could possible do to fix this issue, please help.
I have looked into other peoples ping problems but non of the fixes are helping me any.

I'd suggest playing over ethernet if you can but if you have to use WiFi then connect to 2.4GHz not 5GHz.
