Range Extender ex7000 network issue

Hello.

 

I bought the Nighthawk range extender ex7000 today.

I configured it correctly, it worked fine.

After a few hours I got ping issues, Which I didn't have before.

My ping goes up to 400+ this is very annoying.

I'm having these issues on my ps4 wireless and via wifi.

It's like I can't multitask, (Can't play on my ps4 and watch youtube) when I'm on youtube my ping goes up like crazy.

Any ideas to fix this problem?

    In what mode have you configured the EX7000? Is it set up as an Access Point or Extender, if extender are you using one of the Fastlane options? What is the base station that the EX7000 connects to?

      I have it set up as an extender, and I'm not using the fastlane options.

        What is the base-station? Is it and/or the client devices dual band? If so then Fastlane could make a significant difference to performance.
