Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Throttling when I launch COD Cold War

Question

When I launch COD Cold War my speeds are throttled. I have reset the router, added all the ports for port fowarding and updated firmware and still the same. I test my speed before launching the game and it runs around 930, after launching the game 518. Am i missing a setting somewhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hardwired&nbsp;I'm not trying to be an a-hole but did you read these?&nbsp;I asked what gateway you're using. that'd be a modem, fibre box, whatever the routers connected to. Not the ip address.&nbsp;Then I asked why you're speedtesting during game play. You're not going to get max speeds because you're using it.&nbsp;so you're testing on a pc. hopefull not the same pc you're gaming on. that'd be even more pointless as it takes processing power to game.I then asked what speeds you got hardiwred into the router and you typed hardwired. you did answer this on a prior question that wasn't even about what speeds you go.&nbsp;&nbsp;
