    Dashboard activity severely lagged when connected to network?


    Hi, I am having severe lag issues with dashboard functionality while connected to xbox live and I have no idea why. I tested my ping, download and upload speed and it far exceeds the minimum.

    when playing a game like Destiny. the game plays fine, the chat in game is fine. the problems show when i hit the xbox button to bring up dashboard menu- then it gets laggy- which acts as if the system is doing one thing at a time. the game literally freezes
    and the music stops in the background while it waits for the white dashboard box to fill up with buttons and menu selection. Another example is when someone pings me for a msg or invite- it will take so long to pop up the window..

    when out of game and connected to Network/Live there is a severe delay / lag for the various ads to load- I have no clue why it's doing this all of a sudden I keep thinking the network card is going bad. It is doing this with both wireless and ethernet
    cable

    i cleared cache 3 and 5 times.. turned off the router and unplugged it for x amount of time..etc etc.. none of that is doing any thing to help. still lag in the functionality of the dashboard actions..

    is there any way to test the functionality of the actual network card/chip or whatever it is? the dashboard does just find when not connected to Live.. also- it seems to take a while to load up upon booting up the 360.

    I couldn't find any posts about this specific issue so I apologize if there were any that I missed- or if this is the wrong section..

    :)

  2. Call of Duty: Ghosts will have dedicated servers

    Quite honestly there can still be lag. Dedicated servers dont typically negate lag issues. However,there will
    be no more host advantage and host dashboards. Your connection will determine if you lag or not.

  3. Do people realize that high K/D does not equall skill

    ^^I hate when I am badly connected and die in one burst with no time to react. CoD is funnest when you can take damage, react/evade and move then return fire, but that means you have a great connection or not getting lagged.

    Xbox One Summer Update - after updating the game streaming to PC keeps disconnecting

    I also just updated my Xbox App Beta to version: 22.23.4005.00000; I have been getting "Lost Connection" error messages as well. I can start streaming and get to the dashboard and start a game. Then right when the game starts it says "Network Quality Problems"
    then it says it lost the connection to the console. I just have to click "Stream" again to start playing, but sometimes when I am playing it will lose connection to the console as well.

    By the way, when I first started streaming with my Xbox One, I would start a game and it would start normally. For a while now, every time I start a game the screen goes dim, and then it says "Network Quality Problems". That never used to happen, but for
    the last couple months it happens every time I start a game. I don't remember when that started happening, but it started months ago.

    Also, the stuttering problem from before seems to have gone away for me, but the really bad lag continues to happen. The lag seems to last longer than before; it used to only last 1-3 minutes, and now it lasts about 5 minutes or more. It still only happens
    when the games are full screen, and not when you are on the dashboard. When you hit the Guide Button and it minimizes the game, the game doesn't have any lag. When you make the game full screen again the lag shows up again.

    Hey there,

    Is this also happening with the controller connected to the console directly and not the Windows 10 PC? Was both your Console and PC connected wirelessly or through a wired connection? I know you said previously that the lag stopped when the controller was
    connected to the console, I'm just checking to see if that part of the setup changed when you saw this.
    The lag issue was happening while the controller was connected to the Windows 10 PC. My PC is wired, and my Xbox One console is wireless. I have never tried connecting my Xbox One with a wired connection. I haven't tried connecting my controller directly
    to my Xbox One since updating the Xbox App Beta to version 22.23.4005.00000. I could try connecting my controller directly to the console, but I don't know if I should do it right from the start or not.

    Should I

    - connect the controller to the console directly right when I start streaming?

    OR

    -connect the controller to the PC, and wait for the lag to show up. Then connect the controller to the console directly?

    Also, do you think it matters if the controller is wired to the console, or if it is ok for it to be wirelessly connected to the console? Do you think that would make a difference?

    Another thing I wanted to elaborate on in is the lag and the dashboard. When a game is lagging and you go to the dashboard, it sometimes seems like it "fixes" the lag. The lag will sometimes go away immediately; other times it won't. It seems like if a game
    is lagging, and you keep the game full-screen, it will lag for a longer period of time. If the game is lagging and you go to the dashboard, it seems like the lag goes away quicker. I don't know if going to the dashboard absolutely "fixes" the lag or not because
    it isn't consistent. Sometimes the lag goes away immediately when going to the dashboard, and sometimes it doesn't. It's just that when the lag issue occurs, my first instinct is to go to the dashboard because I feel like that "fixes" it quicker than if I
    just keep the game full-screen.

    Xbox One Summer Update - after updating the game streaming to PC keeps disconnecting

    So, I tried a bunch of different things today. I will just list everything I did.

    Xbox App Beta version: 22.23.4005.0

    Xbox One Console OS version: 10.0.14393.1065

    Windows 10 PC's version: 1607

    Windows 10 PC's OS Build: 14393.447

    -I started streaming to my PC. The Xbox One console was wirelessly connected. The controller was connected with USB to the PC.

    -There was no lag for about 2hrs.

    -Once the lag started, I kept playing. The lag spikes were about 5min apart. At first going to the dashboard would fix the lag, but after a little while the lag seemed to get more severe. When the lag was more severe, going back to the dashboard didn't seem
    like it had that much of an impact on the lag. I also tried to stop streaming, and then start streaming again; this sometimes would fix the lag temporarily. The lag would continue to come back every 5min.

    -Once I noticed that the lag was happening consistently every 5min, I disconnected the controller from the PC. I then reconnected it to the console(with a wired USB). The lag was still occurring unfortunately.

    -Then I quit out of the game I was playing and restarted it; doing that got rid of the lag. I let the game run for about 1hr 30min. The lag didn't return.

    -I then disconnected the controller from the console and reconnected it to the PC with USB. I was able to play for about another hour or so until the lag started happening again. I kept playing for about another 30min.

    -Once the lag was consistently happening every 5min, I again disconnected it from the PC and reconnected it to the console(with USB).

    -Once again, the lag continued until I restarted the game. When I restarted the game the lag was still happening this time, but it wasn't as severe. Most of the time when I would go to the dashboard, it would fix the lag temporarily. Almost every time I
    stopped streaming and restarted streaming, it would fix the lag temporarily. The lag would also happen about every 10min instead of 5min.

    -Then I disconnected the controller from the USB(the controller was still connected to the console, but it was now wireless). When the lag was happening, I would try going to the dashboard, but it wasn't stopping the lag. I also tried to restart the streaming,
    but that also didn't stop the lag.

    -I then reconnected the controller to the console with USB. When I would go back to the dashboard it would sometimes fix the lag. When I would restart the stream it would typically fix the lag. The lag was still always coming back every 10min though.

    -Then I restarted the game again. This caused the lag to go away completely. I let the game run for about an hour, and the lag did not return.

    -Then I disconnected the controller from the console and reconnected it to the PC with USB again. I was able to play for about 1-2hrs before the lag returned.

    So, it seems like having the controller connected to the console(wired with USB) works the best. If there ever is lag I could typically either go to the dashboard or restart streaming the temporarily fix the lag. I could also just restart the game, and fix
    the lag completely. The lag was also less severe, and would happen less often(every 10min instead of 5min).

    Having the controller wirelessly connected to the console seemed to basically be the same as having the controller connected to the PC. Having the controller connected to the PC had the worst results. The lag was more severe and would happen more often.

    I know that there is a new update for the console that came out today, and I am downloading it right now. I don't know if there are any bug fixes or anything like that in the update, but I will play some more tonight. I will post again tonight or tomorrow
    morning to say if anything having to do with the lag has improved. I also just noticed that the Xbox App has an update. I will probably download that and test out the normal Xbox App and see if there is any change.

    Can't Connect to Internet

    Well I can sign into xbox live and I have a great connection but yet I lag. I went to the dashboard to see if the Internet is messing up. So I tested my xbox live connection and it says that I can't connect my network to the Internet but yet I can still
    sign in. Please help with this problem. I don't like lag or it saying that when I can still connect after I do the test :(

    connectivity disparities by location, system, connection type and so forth

    OP can you post your connection speeds from "settings, network, details". My lag is the same on my XB1 and 360. I did have sever lag with COD before and after running the multi-player test under XB1 settings, it reset my setting and the lag went away.

    Ok, I'm really getting put out

    I don't believe this is the problem, it has/had to be something on the sever side. Last night I finally updated the dashboard by downloading and using a USB drive but still couldn't connect to live, no errors, nothing. Just a message saying that live was
    unavailable or that some features were not available. Earlier this evening I still had the same problem but magically everything is fine. No connection issues, no lag, no errors everything working as it should. I didn't do anything on the network or system.
    It just works now. Something is a foot.........
