Best way to boost speeds on Xbox

Hello, I currently have a Xbox one S and I am using an Ethernet connection (from Xfinity store cat5) and I am still experiencing lags what’s recommended? I opened the ports that needed to be opened already.

Greetings @user_ljp9de! It’s definitely frustrating to still deal with lag even when you’re hardwired with Ethernet! Since you’ve already tackled port forwarding, we should look at a few other factors that could be throttling your performance. To help me narrow this down, could you answer a few questions?

Which Gateway model are you currently using? 

What speeds are you seeing when you run a speed test?

Is the lag constant or does it happen more frequently during peak hours (like evenings and weekends)?
