Xbox Live Lag

Hello,
I am having a lot of lag recently and i am wondering what is causing it, some body said it waas because i was throtling, but i think its maybe to do with the fact that i am conencted to xbox live through ICS and my brother has not xbox live aswell but he is conencted by ethernet cable into the router so any of you got any ideas... i am on a 2mb from VM


Speed-Test with me and my brother on xbox live:


Any of you think its the wifi or something...?

Re: Xbox Live Lag

Try playing when only one 360 turned on. If it's still lagging, then you can rule out the other 360 causing the lag.

What capping thing?

don't you mean traffic management

Do you download a lot of stuff on the PC and does the speed on that ever seem slow? if not then it wouldn't be the STM.

Re: Xbox Live Lag

2MB is pretty weak for LIVE these days, especially between two 360s.

Re: Xbox Live Lag

1Mb is basically the minimum requirements for it to actually be playable, I think.

Re: Xbox Live Lag

remember though that if you get stm'd it only lasts for 4 hours and then resets.
