My WiFi seems slow for gaming

When gaming my WiFi drops to 50-60 mbs when it should be much higher

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

My sons gaming console is the furthest part of the house from the WiFi modem

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?
