Gaming Setup ?
Hi all, I bought the AC2300, R7000P during the pandemic and shortage of routers in our area 8 months ago ditching our rental Cox setup. I have since added an Arris SB6190 and last week swape...
If you're getting the same packet loss and latency issues with the device hardwired directly into the modem, what makes you suspect the router?
Not sure if its the Modem or simply could be COD servers. It is strange how many people claim not to experience the issue and some do. Many posts acrosss the web about LAG/LATENCY with this game.
I reached out to our internet service provider yesterday and had them up our speed to see if that would improve the gaming experience but I did not see any improvement.
I did find while looking at my Xbox that it had the wrong power cord and replaced it with the correct one. There was a debate on the power cord in the past about using the factory 7v 125w oem unit vs the 10v 125w.
Yesterday, I also reset the modem and settings on the router back to default and it shows OPEN NAT TYPE in XBOX Settings and COD Home Screen.
Any input from the forum on hard-wired setup to improve LAG or LATENCY?
Cheers!
