Lag on Online Gaming

Hi there - I've had Sky Fibre for about a year now and I thought that this would have fixed my online gaming lagging issues - mainly on the Fifa series.

Basically whenever I'm playing a game of Fifa, and someone else in the house decided to stream from Youtube or iPlayer etc, then I suffer from lag, which is rather annoying. I thought moving to fibre would have fixed this but it doesn't seem to have helped.

I own a Billion Bipac 7800N and have even setup QoS on it, giving my PS4 priority over other traffic, and limiting the iPads and kids phones to around 30% of the connection, but this still doesn't fix the issue.

Is there anything else I could do to try and resolve?

Can you post a screen shot of your QOS setup? (showing the upload and download rules)
