Slow Internet Speed

So recently I started a contract with Hues Net because it’s the only internet provider around here and the speeds are horrible and, my son is a heavy gamer and I don’t want his games to lag. So I was just wondering if anyone could recommend a device from NetGear

  • Well the NETGEAR Nighthawk Pro Gaming routers have DumaOS installed which allows you, among other things, to balance the devices on your local network so that even under heavy use, your son's gaming will not be interrupted.

     

    This works by stopping any other device (say, your TV) from using so much bandwidth that packets are dropped. By leaving room on the network, your son's games will always have an instant response, and lag will be wiped out.
