Hey, earlier today I was getting my max speed 76mMb/s. Now i'm trying to update a game on my Xbox one, and only getting 2Mb/s max. I did a speed test from my computer and it shows 75/Mb/s. Any idea what's going on?
I have port forwarded the xbox one on the router, the NAT is open.
Fixed! Go to the fix.

What is it you're trying to download? Is it a game or an update?
It could quite easily be that speeds are throttled by the server you're downloading from, so more people can download at once.

Hey,
Yeah i'm trying to download an update for the game Doom. It's possible that it could be the server but I find it weird that ealier I was downloading games and updates and getting around 70Mb/s everytime. I hope I haven't been throttled as I Pay for Unlimted Extra for the advertised truly no download/upload limits/No throttling.

I guess it is possible that the game server only allows people to download from them at a certain speed? I know that sometimes Steam does this when a new game is released to try and help manage traffic on their network.
Does this happen on any other games/updates?

It didn't used too. It downloads slowly with other things like Steam & other Xbox One games/updates now.

@Clumsy did you do anything to fix it has I have noticed the same with both our Xbox ones, they did download at 40Mb/s which is about the max on my line, but this week they never get above half that download speed almost like its being rate limited.

@ghos7 No using a different router, as I say its been fine up until this week, just wondered if Plusnet had started throttling downloads to resolve the packet loss issue.

Hey JonnyFu,
No not really. The only thing I did was leave the Router disconnected for a day. I'm using a Plusnet Router.

Sounds like it's actually Microsoft throttling users. I've noticed on PS4 when downloading a game update it's not exactly that fast yet on a speed test i max my line (76mb)
I use a BT hub 5 (type B)
If you Like it, give it a
