    Xbox one Bandwidth usage issue


    My xbox one have downloading issues

    When i download games

    My current bandwidth usage shows 2.10 mb

    But game doesn't download at 2mb

    It takes 3-4 mins to download 2mb

    X1 is connected wirelessly to router

    I tried restarting router.

    Disconnecting every device from router but same speed

    It shows 2mb but downloads around 400kb

    Help would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

    :)

    What is this?!?!

    Hey LadyJadey,

    Thanks for posting, and sorry to see the high bandwidth usage! Has your Xbox One's data usage looked accurate after 5/31? This may have been a visual bug, and your Xbox One console most likely has not reached anywhere near 3,600 TB of data usage. The most
    reliable tool to check internet usage will be through your ISP. Any bandwidth usage your Xbox One console actually uses will reflect on the ISP side. I would not worry about your Xbox One console using that much data unless your ISP is reflecting the same
    amount of usage.

    Hope this helps clear up the issue!

    Xbox one Bandwidth usage issue

    Hi there, I think I know what's going on here.

    The Bandwidth Meter displays your current bandwidth in megabits per second but what you are downloading is showing the speed at
    megabytes. These two data measurements are different.

    bit is 1 bit

    byte is 8 bits

    This means that the speed what you are seeing in the bandwidth meter is
    8 times larger
    than what you are seeing in your download.

    I hope this helped and that this is what you were confused about. However, if you already knew this and I misunderstood you, sorry for wasting your time! Xbox one Bandwidth usage issue :)

    Bandwidth usage always takes measures of how much data (Kilobyte, Megabyte, Gigabyte etc.) you've actually downloaded, as opposed to download- and upload speed, where these are measured in bits per second (Kbit/s, Mbit/s, Gbit/s etc.). However, these two
    correspond with one and the other, as per Term Royal's previous post.

    Hey JackTheHuntr,

    As the others above mentioned, you may be misreading how your console is displaying the statistics.

    However, regardless, that is a pretty slow connection there.

    Could you please provide the following information:

    - Router make/model

    - Type of wireless connection (2G or 5G)

    - Region/country

    - ISP

    Thanks in advance! Xbox one Bandwidth usage issue :)
