Currently I am using a Belkin 54g modem/router which I we have been using at home for at least 8 or 9 years, and im thinking this could be the reason to why my internet is so slow, as the internet plan we have is average, let me explain...
So if I am using the internet on my own to play a game for example the connection is okay, however when someone else then uses the internet to watch youtube i go from having about 30 ping in game to normally 999ms. Even if I am watching youtube and someone else is watching then the internet just slows down and can't handle it.
Does anyone believe that it could be my older modem/router that could be bottlenecking my internet, or could it be something else. Im pretty sure the plan we have isn't too bad, I did a speed test and got:
30ms
3.73Mbps download speed
0.6Mbps Upload speed
Surely my internet plan can't be that bad can it?
Any suggestions/help would be appriciated
