   correct, which is what's needed for a comparison without adding any   
   confounding factors.

   it's very much real world, versus the (inflated) marketing numbers.

   that has nothing to do with wired versus wireless, and anyone can   
   create a scenario to fit whatever conclusion they want.   
      
   nevertheless, in the above scenario, a gaming router (which is   
   basically just canned qos settings) would be a good choice for   
   prioritizing the xbox. streaming video doesn't use much bandwidth and   
   phones are normally idle (and rarely use much bandwidth when not), so   
   custom qos settings might not even be needed.
