I've had sky broadband for a few years now and for gaming it's been dreadful. We get around 55mbps download and 8 upload into the property. It got to the point where it's unfair that I kept telling my other half to not watch Netflix or be on her phone whilst I was gaming so I decided to ditch the sky router and purchase the TP - Link AC2800 which has QoS. Since purchasing and setting it up. Named all the products in my house, set my Ps5 and made a port for fifa 23 servers too set them to priority at 70% then had my phone, partners phone, sky Q system and my LG TV all in at 20% and then basic stuff like Alexa , cameras and work iPads/laptops on 10%. After doing plenty of tests yes QoS does work howeve it doesn't stop me lagging / getting pack loss obviously playing on PS5 the only way I know this happening is I get every symbol under the sun come up whilst I'm in game. I tested this issue yesterday as I got so angry with by literally unplugging everything from my network apart from my phone and my ps5 worked fine until I started scrolling through tiktok and watching Netflix. Then I removed my phone and just linked LG TV and streamed Netflix and boom same thing. I've even set my PS5 a DMZ to open it right up but doesn't make a difference. I've tried everything that I know and that of my knowledge can do. If anyone has any advice I'm willing to give it a go however when I was with BT , I never had this issue 2 years ago so something tells me it has to be with skys routing beyond my property.
