New to QoS, need a run through if possible.
« on: April 13, 2009, 10:42:54 AM »
Ok I remember disabling a bunch of things a long time ago QoS related. Please can someone explain how to reactivate QoS feature and also what does WISH do?

Heres my bandwidth problem.

PC 1 Needs to play steam games like cs without lag, when my bro starts using skype on PC2, i get stupid lag spikes.

So I want steam games to be prioritized over Skype. Also I want my bros pc to have the least bandwidth priority compared to my steam games.

so the order is

1) Steam games
2) Skype
3) Bros PC
4) Browsing

I would really appreciate if someone can run me through step by step on what I need to do. Thank you.

WISH prioritizes traffic on the internal network.
QoS limites upstream bandwidth on the WAN side.

I've had good and bad results with both.
Just noticed crummy performance with media streaming to a media center extender using W.I.S.H, horrible studdering and blocky compressed garbage video. Only when I DISABLED W.I.S.H did I see acceptable increase in performance. No studdering minor video improvement but nothing to gloat about. It kind of defeats the purpose and for some reason is working in reverse to what it's supposed to do. Oh wellz. FML. I may actually, when everyone goes to bed, downgrade the firmware to 1.11 since everyone seems to say it's the best f/w and test it out along with my other post related to crummy performance wireless>wireless wireless>wired.

Kudos.
