Xbox one connection catastrophe

    Sorry if this is in the wrong thread didn't know whether to put this in this or networking.

    So my xbox has been doing my skull in since I bought it just before Christmas. I can't play any multiplayer games for longer than half an hour and sometimes as short has 5 minutes until all of the players start lagging across my screen. I'm looking at the detailed network statistics at the moment and it currently says this.
    DL speed:9.63
    UL:0.83
    Packet loss:0
    Latency:51
    Wirecess strength:100%
    Nat type:open

    I'm with eircom so that explains the awful speeds (for 55 a month), but I'm not in my **** ringing them because they are beyond useless. My xbox is set on ipv4 and I haven't a clue why because as far as I know I enabled it in my router settings under LAN. I don't know if the ipv4 is the cause of the problem or something else. Google has been useless I've tried port forwarding and all. The router is close enough but in such a position that going wired wold be quite a task so it's definitely last resort. I had an xbox one before and had absolutely zero problems with the exact same router.

    Can someone who has experienced this problem please help before I **** my router across an eir employees head thanks.
