Foedus Gratiae Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 This is probably a simple answer, but I am unsure of it so... I have an Access Point (Asus RT86-P) running through the Duma. Then I have my xbox one physically attached to the Access Point. My question is this: when I am setting up congestion control do I need to up the percentage for the Access Point the same as the Xbox One in order to achieve proper bandwidth allocation? In other words, if I set my xbox at say 10% but only have the Access Point at 5% will only 5% "get" to the xbox or will I have the 10%? Hopefully that makes sense. Thanks for your help!

BIG__DOG Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 if you give your access point 10% of your total bandwidth and give xbox 10% then your xbox will get 10% of the 10% you gave your access point........i will be corrected if I am wrong, but i am certain that is the case!

II N3MES1S II Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 If you give your AP only 5%, your console will only get 5% no matter how much you give your console in the C.C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foedus Gratiae Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 If this is truly the case then I will most likely run an ethernet cable directly from the switch to the xbox and skip the AP altogether. I guess this is somewhat mitigated if "share excess" is enabled. I've always had very high bandwidth (up/down) when I check internet connections on the xbox itself.

infernomachine Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 why are you running from the access point? why not just run from the duma in another port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foedus Gratiae Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 why are you running from the access point? why not just run from the duma in another port? It's a matter of location and not wanting wires all over the place. We are slowly renovating the house so when my office / playroom is finished I will have the wires concealed. Until then Access point... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 27, 2016 Administrators Share Posted October 27, 2016 Would go with what has been said above. If you leave it all equal with share excess it should grab more bandwidth if needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
