PLuNK Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Don't expect a response in a day. Doesn't the third party firmware your currently using support QoS by default? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't the third party firmware your currently using support QoS by default? yes its there but when i enable it it doesnt seem to change much or anything at all if any thing i belive its slowing my connection speeds =/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLuNK Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Yes that's what it does! You'll need to configure it to your liking though.. Eg. Have HTTP/S traffic having a priority over P2P traffic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have HTTP/S traffic having a priority over P2P traffic. yes i know it limits my connection but when i set it up for my all my bandwidth go to 1 port or 1 ip it seems slower if the QoS where off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhollyMindless Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 yes i know it limits my connection but when i set it up for my all my bandwidth go to 1 port or 1 ip it seems slower if the QoS where off As it should. QoS doesn't make things faster, it just makes what you want slower, slower. When you have two connections it's easier to share out the load so QoS just might not be necessary in your config.

PLuNK Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Should've researched it earlier op. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
