why is the connection soooo bad!!

OP there few thing it could happen. You bad internet gear. You connection to a server that far away then you. I had prob going to a game hosted far away from united states in the past. Or it your service plan with your ISP. But you posted good numbers. So
I don't think it the last part. So it might be other two.

 

There's too many variables to just pin the blame on one thing specifically.

 

Agreed! You shouldn't just put ALL the blame on your ISP company. You shouldn't just put ALL the blame on Microsoft. And you shouldn't just put ALL the blame on the game developer if they use their own servers. I have noticed tho that Xbox Live have said
the Fifa servers have been down several times due to maintenance which their partner is carrying out or something. Microsoft runs Xbox Live with availability in a wide range of countries around the world with different time zones. Some peps even some of my
friends blame their internet when it could be an issue on Microsoft's or the game developers servers, side. Although Xbox Live is an enjoyable and great service, it's not 100% perfect. Services do go down on occasions.

 

When in doubt Unreal... BLAME THE MAN MS

 

You can blame M if it's a game which uses M's servers instead of their own servers, and if beacons/notifications/parties/Dashboard functions don't work. But if a game developer uses their own servers instead of M's (Microsoft's), then they should get the
blame. M does take some accountability tho saying something like our partner is conducting maintenance hang in their Xbox members. ADSL Broadband speeds in general, do pass the minimum recommended internet speeds suggested by M for playing on Xbox 360/Xbox
1. My Xbox 1 results average 7.9 down 0.9 up 100% wireless strength and no pack loss but 187-230ms ping only because I live in NZ and live a long way from the US servers. Even UK and Australia (yes the closest country to NZ) may experience a high ping result
too just because the US isn't just "down the road" from them. Even if you live in the US, it could be a ping issue simply because the server your connecting isn't just "down the road". 21st century technology isn't always going to be 100% perfect too.

 

@BIRD when using azure u don't connect to a server in the US there are azure buildings round the world. On titanfall I get 29ms on the west Europe server 98ms on the American server.

The problem I have been getting is when I play ghosts or battlefield on my own or with my other half then I am fine but as soon as I join my mate I lag everywhere on ghosts and battlefield

 

My connection used to run fine until Internet neutrality went out the window. Now, my connection goes to crap at certain times during the day.

 

LOL. I could almost feel the glaring looks as he angrily typed that last reply to me.

meh. Your OP was nothing more than a childish rant. It provided no information that would help anyone trouble shoot your issue. You did nothing more than whine about your connection and lash out at MS. Yet you expect people to fall all over themselves and
beg to help you? Or even offer to help you? GTHO lol

Yeah I never claimed to be 'some brainy guy'... but I can say this. At least when I start having network issues (no matter if they're on my side or not) I have enough common sense to trouble shoot my own network settings. If the problem isn't there, then
I at least know enough to check the appropriate places on my Xbox and on the internet to see if there are any issues going on with MS or the games' servers. Your excuse would be? You know what, never mind... Actually, go ahead. Might be even more amusing.

Bottom line is, if you're going to come in here and post like that, then don't expect a whole bunch of friendly, sunshine and bunnies replies. If you're actually doing something other than just complaining or trolling us, then you'll definitely want to consider
revising the way you post. Doesn't take a brainy guy to get that much sorted.
