Currently using XR500. Do I need to upgrade?
Hello.
I am looking to replace my current router with a router that is made for gaming on two Xbox ones. *We have two Xbox ones [will get the new Xbox when I can find them] hardwired to the current router using cat5e cables. *Unfortunately, the router and cable modem [spectrum 400/20] are upstairs and the Xbox ones are downstairs. *one Xbox is using 75 ft cable and the other is using 100 ft cable. * *I don’t really need one for all the WiFi products because I have an orbi in AP mode hardwired to the router with the satellite**downstairs. We mainly play call of duty multiplayer and a lot of times we are gaming together. *We do get open nat but it seems like one person is pulling a better connection in the games than the other.
*I’m not all that savvy with routers and which ones would be best. I appreciate any and all suggestions. Thank you.*

Re: Currently using XR500. Do I need to upgrade?
If you currently have a xr500, you probably won't see much improvement because it isn't the router that's bottlenecking the xbox.
Its the xbox itself.
When you say ones "pulling a better connection" how are youo measuring that?
Are the xbox's hardwired into the xr500 or through the orbi?
Or through the orbi's satellites?

I'm not measuring the difference in numbers. It's just the amount of hit markers that don't seem to register.
the Xbox are hardwired into the XR500.

Thank you.
I've done a little bit of tinkering with the QOS and ping. I've set my ping no higher than 60 and selected the call of duty.
I've set the Xbox ones to get more of the traffic.
I do need to read more about the DumaOS to try to setup the router better.
