Traffic Prioritization


Recommended Posts

When adding my device ( Playstation 4 ) by choosing the Games Console option in the Traffic Prioritization Tab , it gives me xbox as my service but i want playstation network but doesnt give me the option to choose. ☹ Should i keep it enabled even though it says xbox and im on plyststion ?

make a note of your ps4 ipaddrss assinged by the R1. Go to device manager and click EDIT.......you will see a device matching your ps4 saying UNNAMED DEVICE! Click and rename that to ps4 or whatever you wish to identify your console.........then go to geo filtering and  in 1 of the tabs at the top of the page select you newly named device from the drop down menu and select the ps4 under the device you renamed it as!

I just use all devices and it will automatically sort out gaming packets.

Hi Kage, thanks for purchasing the XR500.

 

As Raddy mentioned it automatically adds playstation traffic out the box. If you have DumaOS classified games enabled it will work. You can verify this by looking at high priority feedback panel, when you're playing on the PS4 you'll see the high priority traffic rising.

 

When you select console and see you xbox that is a minor bug because xbox and playstation classification work the same under the hood. Hope that clears everything up :)

 

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Hi Kage,

 

Just to make sure you need to be on the latest version to make use of the DumaOS Classified Games option that will prioritise consoles & the most popular PC games by default when enabled. Here’s a link to do so: https://kb.netgear.com/000053269/XR500-Firmware-Version-2-1-0-4it also contains many usability improvements to make QoS & Geo-Filter much easier to use.

Should of have stated that im on duma os and some features are different from the r1 now, which i also own.

agh, regarding my comment You did not state in your post that you was using dumaOS and I assumed you was using R1. My mistake and hope you have it sorted now!
