Hey guys, I have a question and wasn’t sure who to ask.
Basically I just moved and I’m unable to hardwire my Xbox . I’m staying in a basement and the router is on the first floor. After testing, the connection is supposed to be good but I experience lag quite often when gaming. I was considering buying the Nighthawk pro for gaming to help combat this. What I was wondering was
-is this a good method to help with lag -I’m only one floor down directly beneath the router/modem, would the distance be a problem since I can’t hardwire
While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge. As you are asking for feedback on gaming routers, this may not be the best place.
You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:
Gaming routers have their own DumaOS operating system that is nothing like the one on Netgear's standard routers. So that's where the people who understand those things hang out.
