Hello guys,

Everytime the kids are here and they play games it automatically takes up All the Bandwidth off our router. Why is this? Ive looked up and we don't have money for router or a faster internet which we can DL at 2MB which is fine for me

Last time an Xbone took up bandwidth for net I was paying for I blocked it off the network. In your case you might want to set up QOS settings.

Port forwarding.
I dunno why it works. But it does
The Xbox likes it's ports.

It shouldn't be taking all of your bandwidth unless it is downloading an update, which on two megs... very likely to be slowing you down.

Click to expand...

Out of curiosity, can a xbox still operate if not connected to a network?
