How to fix high latency on a Bloody Netgear wired to a Xbone
| PS: im not great with networking aspect of this issue.
| Start with the basics, try replacing the cable first
| OP Here.
I tested the cable this morning and the connection to the console to the router was solid.
The Netgear AC750 is the issue.
| Two possible Solutions:
>One
Ask the official support of "your" devices. You paid for it and they have to help you, as they are the only ones how their stuff really works.
>Two
1. Replace "your" Xbone with a open device that allows the installation of free software.
2. Replace "your" Router with a open device that allows the installation of free software.
3. Install free software
4. Learn to solve the problems by yourself or ask for help in a community that values freedom.

I'm going to hazard a guess that you mean "your" is "their", as in the corporation owning you in some way by using their products.
Im asking here for a second opinion on the issue that I have encountered. I couldnt sort it out there an then due to it being in near 12 in the morning.
Your forth opinion is ambigious, are you implying /u/ isn't free?
And what free software do you recommend if I were to switch?

I'm sick of this phone deleting my messages before I send them...but basically to sum it up, reset your router. Let it set for about a minute. Check the whole cable for cuts or damage. If there is new construction in the area get a foiled cable. Otherwise call sky first, they will be able to tell you if something is going wrong on their end and send a reset. If not then call Netgear. They can send you info if not a replacement.

A standard-conform computer with any GNU/Linux distribution of your choice. You could buy gamepads and install steam for the proprietary gaming expierience. And for your router use openwrt.
Then I love to help you with your problems. I just don't see, why people should give free service for unfree systems.
Btw. A 100% free system is sadly hard to achieve, because it stands against industry interests :( Even Linux contains proprietary binary blobs.
| The issue could also be in your modem. If your modem is too slow, it won't be able to keep up with the router or Xbox. You can do a computer to computer performance test. If that works fine then you can assume the issue is the modem being old

| So my internet has been all over since yesterday.
I play Xbone alot in my attic room, using a Netgear AC750 with a CAT5e cable connected to it. The device light would normally light green when connected with the cable, but now it doesnt, with it going on when its wireless.
Latency on a EU Killing Floor 2 server was 40-67ms, but now its constantly 400+ms with it dipping down on brief occasions. Keep in mind my internet provider is Sky and its at the base of house. Any help g/u/rls
