      With 3.5mbs downstream its possible your using all of your downstream bandwidth on youtube thus lagging out your gaming sessions. I would do some tests while pinging and browsing youtube and possibly think about implementing some traffic shaping.

          I have the same problem. Do you wanna share how you set up the traffic shaper to work properly? I dont get it of my own to work. Would be nice if you can write up some details.

          Greetings

              If you got the budget get another line and failover it much better than shaping been using it for weeks right know
