Are you moving it far away from the modem/router? If it's not wired, being far away from the wifi router could make it slow.

You need to put your Xbox in a location where it has good wifi connection.
That’s all there is to it. If you move it and it has lag that means the spot you put it doesn’t have good coverage.

That cant be the problem
It gets worse when I get closer to the router
The only time it doesnt lag is in my room
Anywhere else in my house = lag
Any of my friends houses = lag

The cause of lag is Internet connectivity, which includes WiFi strength how many other people are using your internet etc, not whether or not your Xbox is specifically in your room.
You can use a site like Speedtest.net to track your speed and latency in different locations.
And of course a wired Ethernet connection will provide the best results.

How does that explain my xbox speed changing depending on my room
The same ammount of people are still on the internet
And im closer to the router
It makes no sense

wifi coverage maps are complicatedd and not just simply based on distance. walls, furniture, people, etc all impact coverage
