New PC and router - now having lag issues

Hi All,

I sometimes play games on my office PC on my breaks. Was previously running a nearly 10 year old Dell PC, and we have BT business broadband but not massively fast, 76mb download etc. Never had any problems with lagging, it was slightly delayed like I think all xcloud is(?) but never had any massive issues and could play single player games no issues.

We have been upgraded, new PCs (refurbed but still a lot faster etc), but we have had a new router connected to our old BT router (firewall router?), and when I went to play after it had been installed, I was getting massive lagging almost 2-3 seconds delay. I turned on the stats overlay and it didn't look like I was dropping frames, and ping and latency was solid and didn't seem to be fluctuating, and there also wasn't any noticeable packet loss. I tried changing some settings, dropping the quality down etc, but nothing seemed to change things, it was still lagging quite bad. Any ideas what could be causing this? I assumed the new router/firewall, but I am by no means an expert on this!

EDIT: Editing to include more details. Device is a Lenovo 11BM0016UK, Windows 11. I have tried on both Xbox.com/play, and on the Xbox App. No other browser extensions. I am in the UK.

I DID IT!!

I made a post 3 weeks ago about not being able to jab myself. I’ve tried multiple times since and still not managed to do it, I just could never bring myself to do it.

We fast forward to today, 3 weeks after I first tried, and I DID IT! I even tried using Emla cream last week and couldn’t bring myself to do it, but tonight something just clicked. I set everything up really quick and still had some panic, I just sat and tried to be as calm as possible, and actually ended up using an ice pack to numb the area for 5 minutes, and then just did it! It still took a few attempts even when it was numb, but as soon as it went in it was fine, didn’t feel a thing!

Thank you for everyone who commented on my previous post with recommendations of things to try, I really do appreciate it. Here’s to hopefully losing a boat load of weight!!
