This issue still continues to ruin my network. Qbittorrent app on the NAS has been limited to downloading at 1mb! As per the attached, why is the NAS still showing as using over 10mb and still grinding my network to a half? The smart boost isn’t fit for purpose on this firmware, it literally cannot stop the NAS from stealing all the bandwidth no matter what you do on the router.

It's not a torrent app, it's called Download Center an official Asustor NAS app. I can see if there are options to do that but still I don't understand with the intelligence of the Netduma how it allows this to happen.

Hi all, Can someone please explain the below? My internet speeds are set, I get around 30 MB on a good day, so Network speeds have been set accordingly, with congestion control set at 70%. If I download something through my NAS, say a torrent, the usage goes up to 77 MB as per the picture, and my home network literally comes to a halt. No one can browse on their phone, play an online game, etc. I have raised this question before: How do I limit the bandwidth my NAS uses? It's not smart boost, listed as a device, or in activities, so I'm not sure why it uses all bandwidth. On the latest firmware, v4.0.540

I rebooted and tried again, I actually got an error this time around

Learn something everyday...! But no that didn't work...still old firmware

I've gone through the upgrade process, but the top right still says I'm on v4.0.290. No errors seem to occur; it uploads and then upgrades... Any ideas? I've tried twice with the same result. Thanks

Request for beta please

Nope, nothing has changed. Played a online EAFC25 game whilst the NAS downloaded something, horrific lag.

I thought pppoe was now supported better on the r3? Im on 4.0.219

Its a BT Openreach Huawei EchoLife HG612 FTTC VDSL Fibre Modem, just straight into the R3 as PPoE. What else should I else be setting?

Just tested it now and hasn';t worked

70% for both up/dl auto

Yeah, you'd think, but this has been happening for a while. I'm getting sick of pausing the downloads. It cripples the network, and no one can barely do anything. It steals so much bandwidth. The NAS is definitely not a priority device. How do you mean have it set?

Hi, I was just wondering if there was a reverse smartboost to reduce the amount of bandwidth, both up and down, that a device can take? The reason is my NAS can be uploading/downloading a lot, and when it does, it seems to affect other devices on the network significantly, ie, my lad and I were just playing Rocket League together and suffered horrific lag due to the NAS downloading (despite our consoles being in the priority devices). Is there a way I can set the NAS to download at max one 1mb for example? The same as upload? The R3 doesn't know how to classify the activities, most are classed as unknown. Thanks

Thank you. That explains it then. The APs don't have DHCP, I was always confused by them never showing as online as they are passing traffic a lot.
