CrispyCheats Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 Give us the option to set QoS to balance bandwidth evenly across CONNECTED devices, this will allow all connected devices to be assigned larger amounts of bandwidth automatically. Deallocating bandwidth for devices that disconnect is good because, if one disconnects, other devices which require more bandwidth will have more allocation instead of users setting the allocations manually for 20+ devices that may have been connected at one time By doing this, Sharing Excess Bandwidth should work more effectively as the OS should be able to more effectively balance bandwidth when someone wants to watch YouTube while the Excess Bandwidth is already being used. DumaOS will be able to handle balancing better by forcing the Excess Bandwidth to be throttle down because other devices which need their higher allocated bandwidth which is more efficient for the end user becasued more resources are being balanced properly. Example: Phone A has 2 Mbps Download allocated by default Phone A would require 5+ Mbps to watch a YouTube Video bufferless Computer A is stealing Excess Bandwidth by downloading a Game Phone A is struggling to stream a video because it's limited at 2 Mbps and Computer A is stealing Excess Bandwidth Phone A could have more bandwidth allocated by default because DumaOS would allocate higher bandwidth to connected devices and throttle Excess Sharing down when these devices request their higher allocated bandwidths. This is not a problem if you manually set every device to have more Bandwidth but the problem is still there. Allocating low bandwidth to lower bandwidth devices and allocating large amounts to higher bandwidth devices is a pain because if they ever need more bandwidth above the allocation, they can't get it while a device is already stealing the Excess Bandwidth. This wouldn't be much of a problem because more devices would have higher allocations. IF THIS IS ALREADY DEFAULT FUNCTIONALITY, SORRY BUT I WAS NOT AWARE. BASED ON EXPERIENCE, WHEN A DEVICE IS USING LARGE BANDWDITH, OTHER DEVICES STRUGGLE TO DO BASIC THINGS ON THE DEFAULT BANDWIDTH ALLOCATIONS BECAUSE THEYRE BALANCED ACROSS ALL DEVICES.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted July 4, 2020 Administrators Share Posted July 4, 2020 I do get what you mean, by using Anti-Bufferbloat at the same time as Bandwidth Allocation there should never be an issue with one device hogging all the bandwidth to the point another device can't be used properly.

Does this also still allow the full download bandwidth to be used if a device is looking for it and it's available? Reading the information, it made me believe that it would hurt overall bandwidth.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted July 4, 2020 Administrators Share Posted July 4, 2020 Anti-BB will lower bandwidth to ensure that the connection is never saturated, allowing all devices to do what they like at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
