tyfeonas Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Hello again. i just noticed the latest days that my qos was not working. i was getting d on bufferbloat and see the same results on pingploter. without changing anything in my network. any change that i made on the router was zero effect. i had the same problem some months ago. i just reset my router and all is ok again. i have done this also the last time. i dont know why this is happening. any idea from the support? i will probably change the router with some other because i cannot reset it every time and configure it again. i only use my router for qos. no geofiltering or nothing else. now i get again a+ on bufferbloat. i just mention that for anyone haves the same problem.

Administrators Netduma Alex Posted October 28, 2019 Administrators Share Posted October 28, 2019 Does the CPU usage on the router go crazy when you need to restart it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think thats what Alex was referring to, that or unplugging it and plugging back in, but I tend to resort to that only if nothing else works.

Yeah that's right, I meant rebooting, restarting, unplugging... What I DIDN'T mean however was a factory reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyfeonas Posted October 29, 2019 Author Share Posted October 29, 2019 no i must make a factory reset. reboot restart or unplugging it does not make a difference. this is the second time it happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 29, 2019 Administrators Share Posted October 29, 2019 You said you get the same results on PingPlotter as you do with DSLReports - could you clarify this please and if possible provide a screenshot of the results? What QoS settings are you using specifically? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyfeonas Posted October 30, 2019 Author Share Posted October 30, 2019 i meant that when i was having the issue of not working the qos , and i saw D rating at dslreports , with the pingploter when i was opening another device on the network (example netflix from another device) the pings spiked . wich i think mean that i was getting bufferbloat . when i reset the router without changing anything else in my setup i am getting a+ on bufferbloat and on ping ploter the pings dont spike when i open netflix on another device . i have verified the behavior both on pingploter and dlsreports. my setup in qos is on the photo. i have wifi disabled and dont geofilter at all. i only work the qos feature.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 30, 2019 Administrators Share Posted October 30, 2019 That indicates that the QoS settings you're using aren't optimal for your connection. I would recommend following this guide while saturating your connection e.g. downloading, streaming etc and trying different Anti-Bufferbloat percentages to see what lowers your ping and keeps it stable: http://support.netduma.com/en/support/solutions/articles/16000074717-how-to-test-your-internet-ping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 30, 2019 Administrators Share Posted October 30, 2019 It could be a whole host of regions such as Netflix not streaming in as high a resolution, more bandwidth for the devices needs, no peak congestion etc. I would still recommend doing my suggestion though so it's optimal for your connection.

Its most likely just not kicking in for you as it should. I was actually having a lag issue with my internet and had to reboot the cable modem AND router. I was perfectly fine after that though. I have 100/10 and just leave the 70/70 on. But honestly, if ur testing it after resetting or rebooting it might be that nothing had been using your internet and gave you a different result. As frasier said, youre probably just not using the optimal setting, you'd be surprised what even 1-5% difference will do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyfeonas Posted November 10, 2019 Author Share Posted November 10, 2019 Thanks for the replys. but the problem is the for the second time the antibufferbloat just did not work in till i reset the router. with any setting that i tried. now is working ok.
