Congestion Control


Recommended Posts

When downloading updates or games on xbox one the Congestion Control should turn off automatically to use full bandwidth to make the download go faster idk if that would be possible but would save time ticking the off option.

That's a really good idea, we do have plans for some more automation. I'll pass this onto the team.

It should turn on when connected to a game server maybe that would make more sense?

That would have to be an opt in option.

You would run into the the misallocated server issues as servers change IP and new servers come online.

I agree with the opt in option and also they can do ip ranges most games use Amazon/Microsoft/Google servers or they can use this website https://ip-api.com/#1.1.1.1 that can detect if its hosting maybe they can do something like that?

You can kind of do this already by setting traffic  prioritization manually to to the console you want full speed on under advanced 

e.g xbox TCP-source port 1-65535-destination port (443,80)

It's not ideal as it will bypass congestion control set to always but may be what your looking for?
