    You might need to change the channel setting on your router. Use Inssider to check what channels are congested, and change your modems channel setting to broadcast on a less-congested channel.

    You cannot depend on Wireless for your connection, so switch to Ethernet and see if the problem persists. If it doesn't, then you have a wireless issue, and those can be difficult to solve.

    That video just shows a speed test, and I don't really see anything wrong with it. Your connection isn't dropping.

    no the speeds are dropping as you can see it stays at the same speed for a while about 10mb and then jumps it shouldnt do that

    You won't notice much difference in online gaming when it comes to speed once you over something like 5Mb, nevermind 30Mb.

    Also, as suggested above, use ethernet, not wireless for gaming...
