Ridiculous download speed

I have Verizon Fios with 150/150 and my console is hardwired to the router. When I have an update or try to download a game, my xbox downloads it at a mere 8-12mbps. If I run a network speed test from the xbox, it confirms my 150/150mbps. Why am I waiting
hours for updates and downloads when I have a great wired connection??? Microsoft needs to step up their game. This doesn't seem like new news....

Ridiculous game & system update download speeds

An open, moderate, or strict NAT has nothing to with your estimated bandwidth, in transit between the ISP and end user neworking equipment. NAT is simply put, a transparent boundary that segements your internal network from an external network, where private
IP addresses can't be traversed to the Internet-at-large, without first being translated to a routable public IP and port, and to "allow" an internal, external binding, for subsequent traffic from the outside, and back into your local network.

It doesn't matter if you're using your PC, or as Richiestang78 suggested, "Internet Explorer on the One", to perform a speedtest of your connection, using your console, as long as these tests are based on the best ping, against a testserver. Whenever you
run a basic IP connectivity test (ping), along with the test to measure your download- and upload -speed, using your Xbox One, the roundtrip time is measured against a server located in Seattle, WA. So, if you go about to perform a similiar test, using your
PC, then change the server your testing against, to a server located in Seattle, WA.

 

Ridiculous game & system update download speeds

For the life of me I cannot figure out why my Xbox One downloads SO incredibly slow. It doesn't matter whether it's system updates, or the Battlefield beta I'm currently downloading. I've tried wireless and of course I've tried wired, and no matter what
the Xbox is topping out at pulling ~3.8 Mb of my 30 Mb internet line...and this is with no other devices using the network, either. I've forwarded ports, have a completely open NAT, and have even tried plugging it directly into my modem and thereby skipping
my router entirely. Nothing makes any difference and this kind of download speed is absolutely bonkers.
