my isp has add on plans that can supposedly know if im using an xbox, certain games or a ps.

how do they detect this? And is there a way to, for example, use the playstation bundles on xbox? (they offer more quota)

      Nothing to do with routing … the first part of a L2 MAC address is the OUI… organizationally unique identifier… so they know the device type.
