    What Firmware is currently loaded?
    What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?

     

    Is the game console wired or wireless connected to the XR router?

    Do you get good speeds with a wire connected PC?

      What were the speeds on the PS4 and what are they now? Console speed tests can be inaccurate, if you do a speed test on a wired computer what results do you get? Gaming requires very little bandwidth so it is unlikely that is the cause of the issue - what game are you playing and are you using the Geo-Filter?
