Gaming Lag - Firmware?
So here's my situation. Recenlty (last couple months) I have noticed significant lag wile playing COD on my PS4. At first I thought it was my controller, because my charactor was running around lik...
Thanks again for your help FURRYe38. I am not sure if I am going to go with another "gaming" router. I am exploring commercial solutions like Ubiquiti. Little harder to set up intially, rock solid once they're up and running. I do appreciate you pointing me in the right direction and for the advice. I will do some research on Netgear's higher end models and go from there.
UPDATE: Still having issues with the router after trying several older versions of firwmare (working backwards). I have tried just leaving default settings on the router after factory reset and lag still happens when another device on the network is streaming. My PS4 is hard-wired, and lag happens when any other device is using bandwidth (wired or wirless). My total download for all attached deviced never goes above 10-15Mbps, and my total upload never exceeds 2Mbps.
The old router (WNR3500V1) *original post I stated it was a WNR2000 by mistake* is still working without issue. This is leading me to believe that the issue with my Nighthawk is hardware related instead of firmware. Does anyone have any suggestions for troubleshooting beyond what I have laready tried?
Any help is appreciated.
