poor download speeds
As others have already stated: yes it is due to an overwhelming amount of people connecting to xbox servers caused by lockdown. And, due to lockdown, many internet provider has limited the bandwith usage for every user, so that everyone can be connected
at the same time

im getting about 1GB/hr download rate , im gonna download GTA V which is 69GB thats means its gonna take about 70hrs to downlaod a single game , thats pretty ridiculous no matter how overwhelmed the servers are

It might be because the download speeds have been slowed down since a lot of players are on the servers and playing. Sony did something similar, they slowed down download speeds but kept the gameplay online at regular speeds that way the servers wouldn't
get overloaded and crash because so many users are on. This may be the case with Microsoft as well. I'm not 100% sure but it's a good possibility.

3. the xbox can only bring you 150 to 250 mbit over wlan (last is the absolute maximum i ever reached)

Somewhere around those numbers with two spartial streams, depending on the MCS, bandwidth, GI (800/400ns) on OFDM (ac).

More likely to see data rates around 140 Mbps on OFDM (ac) on 20 MHz channel width with an MCS 7 rate. If you bond it to

40 MHz with the same MCS rate, you could, potentially, reach data rates at 270 Mbps.

Have you tried if you can a wired connection from router to xbox . Or try forgetting the network then reconnect 🤔

As said some providers and Microsoft and the game servers have been slower so everyone should be able to get online play games , during the corona virus lock down 👍

1. it can be the servers, without the actual lockdown and with it

2- it can be your wifi connection (what standard) as well as your cable (right cable)

3. the xbox can only bring you 150 to 250 mbit over wlan (last is the absolute maximum i ever reached)
