I ussed to get 32-35mbps upload with my previous Linksys router. Since buying my XR500, I have been getting 2-3mbps upload. This is occurring both wired and wireless. And I’ve noticed it more on the Xbox, any suggestions???

Will do, I’ll keep you posted

And for anyone wanting to know which ports I forwarded here they are. The game play has improved so much but make sure you disable UPnP if it is for FIFA only. PS4UDP: 3074, 3478-3479, 3659, 6000TCP: 80, 443, 1935, 3478-3480, 3659, 10000-10099, 42127 EA OriginUDP: 1024-1124; 18000; 29900TCP: 80, 443, 1024-1124, 9960-9969, 18000, 18120, 18060, 27900, 28910, 29900

I'll have to get back to you on the checking of the upload speed through speedtest.net on my phone as apose ot my console. I also have not checked the pingplotter to see if there are any spike issues, I'll do that when i get home later as well. With the geofilter set to 40 ms I am only getting the 37-40 ms range. I have never seen a speed quicker than that range with the exception of when I had Fiber internet where the ping was 8-12 ms. WIth comcast the pest that I have seen on my console has been the 37-40 range that I mentioned. Although even with those ranges I have played games that the speeds have bee perfect, but then the very next game the lag would be noticeable. I'll run a few tests later with the new wiring that was performed to see what I get and will get back to you.

Hi there, this is the first post you've made as far as I can see. If you make a topic I'm sure we'll be able to resolve the issue that you're having. Firstly take a look at this guide: http://support.netduma.com/en/support/solutions/articles/16000076586-dumaos-optimal-settings-guide-maxmimum-bandwidth-speeds if you're still having an issue make a new topic and give us some more information regarding the issue.

Have you input your expected speeds into Anti-Bufferbloat options? What are your QoS settings set to? What do you get through a wired PC?

  It is set to default settings for that, I haven’t touched it. Wired and wireless is same upload speed (at least on Xbox)

    Set the MAC address of the XR500 to the MAC address of your previous router.
    
    What speeds do you get on a wired speed test though as console speed tests can be inaccurate.

  I have imputed expected speeds have it set to always and set each to 70% still hasn’t fixed issue.

Have you done a hard power OFF of the xbox? Hold the power button until it shuts off. Then turn it back on?

What are speeds if you wirelessly connect the xbox to the router?

Only thing I would try is a factory reset. Set up from scratch and this time, skip any QoS features. Just do a quick test with the xbox and see if the speed changes any.

I'm having the same issue with my PS4 where when I see my game lagging (FIFA) I'll disconnect and do a connection test and sure enough the upload speed will be at 2-3 mbps. Not sure why it's doing this which it occurs frequently but not constants. I am using ethernet with my Net Gear Gigabit cable modem (32x8) DOCSIS 3.1 which is then connected to my XR500 and then to my PS4 pro. I have changed the QoS settings to 70%, done port forwarding, Opened DMZ, changed the Geofiltering and I am still getting inconsistent upload speeds. Any help would be appreciated.

  2-3mbps is absolutely plenty for gaming so I don't think thats what your issue is. Whats the ping you're getting to the game as shown by the Geo-Filter?

    The ping says that it's 43 ms. I have it set to 40 on the geo filter but i get around 60-63 here and there.
