What should be the setting for bandwidth allocation? (Flower graph)

[Chaiyoabc]

I’m still confused about this one

should I make download and upload to 100% toward ps4? 

Or Should I make it all the way to my pc?

it all depends on your bandwisth and what you are doing. The best bet is to leave share excess ticked and let the router do the work. just reduce the sliders in anti bufferbloat to get the optimal bufferbloat setting when gaming.

Yea, what is share excess and what is difference between ticked and unticked.

If you untick share excess then each device will only get the bandwidth that has been allocated to it.

With share excess ticked then bandwidth is available to all devices. For instance: if you allocate your console 20% but it only actually needs to use 10% then the spare 10% will be available for any of your other devices if they need it.

Thanks for clear explaination

For some reason, When I play BO4. It is better when I set 60% toward PC, and only 20% toward PS4 

I'm not sure if it is placebo, but it makes lag compensation much better than going toward PS4 all the way. 

Can anyone explain if this was placebo or what ? 

Thanks

As games only use a tiny amount of bandwidth, typically <0.5Mbps then it’s more than likely a placebo but if it’s working for you then that’s what matters. That is what the Netduma is all about, finding the settings that works for you.

It could be placebo, so the best thing to do is use the Ping Graph to check out what's going on. Ping is the most accurate reading of how your gameplay will feel, so it's vital that you use that stat to judge how well your settings are working.

As PollutionBlues said above though, it's all about the learning! Over time you'll find out what works best for the game you're playing. Let us know if you need a hand!
