Discussion topic: Gaming network issues

Reply

Hi there recently acquired sky broadband which it says is good for streaming and gaming. I am having a very hard time gaming it keeps saying during gaming network issues detected and is constantly freezing and jumping. TV streaming is fine but gaming is impossible is there a way to fix this as I have tried all things. Could really do with help on this as its ridiculous to claim the broadband is good for gaming when it's not. Thanks.
