@Chrisbailiff75  Gaming on Wi-Fi is always asking for trouble. It is better done on ethernet.

@Chrisbailiff75 

What is the speed you should be getting on your package?

Gaming in itself consumes very little bandwidth so it would be surprising if gaming itself was causing you a drop in speed. Are you sure the console isnt downloading games/updates and thats what is causing the drop in speed?
