Zennon Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 I was playing on my xbox last night just a normal night son on his pc streaming watching videos etc. My games were not great got a bit frustrated and turned it off. Later that night I thought oh dam i had set my congestion control to 100% that morning to download and forgot to switch it back, I checked and sure enough it was set to 100%. Is it posssible to have a timer to go from one inputted settting to another so nights of pain like this do not happen again because of a slip of memory
lukasz Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 This is actually a really good idea, ofcours if its possible BTW Zennon it hapens to me few times so far
Administrators Netduma Iain Posted April 23, 2015 Administrators Posted April 23, 2015 We will be adding a "scheduling system" soon for parental control. I'll make sure to design it flexibly so you can control many features including CC using it. But that will be a month or two away. So remind me nearer the time please if I forget.
Akic Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Not sure if this is possible but instead of a timer that activates/deactivates at a specific time could congestion control be activated when the router sees gaming traffic and deactivated after a certain period of not seeing any gaming traffic? That would be a killer feature for people who game at different times
Zennon Posted April 23, 2015 Author Posted April 23, 2015 That sounds neat as well, I am guessing that would take alot more work to code?
Administrators Netduma Iain Posted April 23, 2015 Administrators Posted April 23, 2015 We could definantely look into it. Maybe code the system using triggers. The triggers could be time or traffic activated. Like it!
Zennon Posted April 23, 2015 Author Posted April 23, 2015 I like the sound of this because i bet i am not the only one thick enough to leave it on 100% when others are on the network while they game.
Administrators Netduma Iain Posted April 23, 2015 Administrators Posted April 23, 2015 It will be a while though guys
Akic Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 I like the sound of this because i bet i am not the only one thick enough to leave it on 100% when others are on the network while they game. I do this to and also forget to turn it back to full speed when I've finished gaming. Must be the senility setting in
procreate Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 curiously, is it really a problem to just leave it on? i have 60/5 service so plenty of headroom anyway. i have had it on since i installed it and havent noticed any poor network congestion on any streaming etc...
Zennon Posted May 6, 2015 Author Posted May 6, 2015 I use it as both myself and my boy both game and both stream and i use usenet to download at my full speed of 63mb so things can get congested , we both do this at different times, while we are both on, its a safety thing for me. I usualy set it to 100% on a morning , then set it to 70% on a night , but also the enable disable feature to be set by a timer by hour ot by presetfor a game would be great as i have turned it off for battlefield as there servers are spot on then for got to turn it back on when i play cod the odd times.
