Xbox One S slowing down wifi on other devices.

My xbox is just slowing down wifi on all other devices.When the xbox is off the two arrows beside the wifi signal are both flashing.

When the console is on only the top arrow flashes??? I cant use google, youtube, fb....

:)

 

does ethernet xbox one download faster?

Other devices using the wifi can slow down your internet, depending on how much data it's using. A typical iPhone browsing the web shouldn't slow down your internet. If you're doing something like downloading a video on your laptop, then that could definitely slow down your speeds on Xbox.

 

Xbox One Slowing down the internet for other devices

I believe I have found the solution, I reset the Xbox one via the settings

"Settings>System>Console&Updates>Reset"

I chose to keep my saved apps and games so I didn't have to re download them. After that just run through the start up (you will have to put in all your details again as if it were the first time using the xbox). This seems to have fixed the internet speed
and latency issues on the PC and the Xbox, the test speed test on my PC whilst the Xbox was on shows no issue and the detailed network statistics on the Xbox itself show no issue either.

The last note I will add, I did have to do this again after I pulled the the power cable out of the Xbox and turned it back on as it went back to ruining the internet but another reset has fixed the issue again.

 

What are these "arrows beside the wifi signal"? Are you referring to the LEDs of your wireless router, that would indicate Tx/Rx on a specific frequency (2.4 resp. 5GHz)?

Any particular reason why you've chosen to connect your gaming console over wireless, and not the more preferable method of wired?!?

 

By the arrows i mean the ones in the attached picture below which comes on mobiles and devices. I have chosen a wired connection but still the wifi is very very slow.

 

Gotcha!

Never seen those arrows before. However, the arrow pointing up equals transmit (Tx) data, and the arrow pointing down equals Receive (Rx) data.

Could you post up the make and model of your modem along with your wireless router.

Could you also tell us how you've setup your console, to connect to your gateway. Whether wired, or wireless, is your console connected directly to your gateway, or do you use an additional networking device between your console and your gateway?
