QoS setup for low priority torrents
« on: September 16, 2008, 01:16:47 PM »

I'm running into issues with downloading any torrent, where even downloading and uploading both at 1kb makes everything else extremely slow. I'm connecting at 17mb down and 1.2mb up btw. I'm now setting up the QoS engine so that everything is prioritised before torrents, hopefully it will work.

I've set a block of 3 ports for the 3 computers which use torrents. The ports are 11110 - 11112, for the ip addresses 192.168.0.110 to 192.168.0.112. I now set this block with the following settings:

Local IP range: 192.168.0.110 to 192.168.0.112 (the ip range of the 3 computers I've set)
Local port range: 11110 to 11112 (the port range of the 3 computers I've set)
Protocol: Both (TCP and UDP right?)
Remote IP range: 0.0.0.0. to 255.255.255.255 (is this right?)
Remote port range: 0 to 65535 (is this right?)

Now for all other connections, can I set all ports and all protocols for all ip addresses as a lower priority, or do I have to split this and avoid the block I've just set? Atm for all other port ranges and protocols for all ip addresses before and after this block, I set the following:

Before:
Local IP range: 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.199 (the ip range of all connected devices)
Local port range: 0 to 11109 (all ports before the 3 used for torrents)
Protocol: All

Remote IP range: 0.0.0.0. to 255.255.255.255
Remote port range: 0 to 65535

After:
Local IP range: 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.199 (the ip range of all connected devices)
Local port range: 11113 to 65535 (all ports after the 3 used for torrents)
Protocol: All
Remote IP range: 0.0.0.0. to 255.255.255.255
Remote port range: 0 to 65535

Do these settings look correct? (Sorry for the long post)

I had the same problem until I manually set my upload speed instead of leaving it on automatic.  Manually enter your speed but 10-15% less than your actual.  I also set torrents with a priority of 200 and left everything else on default(128 usually).  Try that and see if it helps.

This is how I use to have it setup when I was using a DIR series router. I use a DGL-4500 now but the concept is still the same.

I don't want to hijack the thread, but Im not sure another needs to be created since this appears to be a good place for my question.  If need be I will create another thread, all apologies if that is the case.

Do Gamefuel rules need to be ordered sequentially in the gamefuel menu?  Meaning highest priority to lowest? 

I'm using a DGL-4300 and it appears all network sessions are operating at 255 priority.  I have a rule configured for a game that is prioritized as 1, and another rule prioritized at 255.  They are configured correctly per posts here.

Please note the rules prioritizing the game (Priority 1) are last on the list, with the 255 priority rule being first.

From looking at the screenshot above it appears it shouldn't matter, but perhaps this is a bug with the DGL-4300?

Running firmware 1.7

No it doesn't matter what order you put the your settings to.

I just purchased the 825 rev B1 and have the 2.02NA firmware installed.  When trying to set the QOS priority on mine I can only select between 1-8.  I would like to set my other devices to 255 but it is telling me that I can only pick 1-8.

Also, since you are setting the priorities manually should I disable "AUTOMATIC CLASSIFICATION"?

On this screenshot I noticed besides the priority box your's says (1-255).  On my 825 it says (1-8).  Do you know why this is?  Thanks for the help.

What about setting up a 360 rule for 2 xboxes that IP's are say 197 and 199, but you also have a pc on 198, can you just create 2 rules?
