Bandwidth allocation service and application manipulation simulatenously

[nph84 6]

Hi,

You guys software and router and everything you are doing is purely awesome and I love the OS. I was just wondering, would it be possible in a future firmware update to include the ability to adjust bandwidth allocation to devices AND services together rather than it being an either/or type of thing?

 

Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback!

How do you mean? For example, prioritising a particular service on a particular device?

Currently, on the bandwidth allocation screen when the allocation method is chosen for applications, it resets the settings for bandwidth allocation settings for devices and vice versa. Moving forward was just wondering if it could be made possible for us to do this without the settings on the other allocation method being forgotten. Also, if I want to prioritize a specific program would I just input the ports that program uses under traffic prioritization?

OK sure, I get you! Thanks for the suggestion, do you have a particular issue/use case where this would be helpful for you?

Yep, spot on! What program are you prioritising

Now that you verified that I can use ports to prioritize traffic I can't think of a scenario 😅.

I am prioritizing a program called Parsec.

Is it parsec.app? If so and based on the help section did you make this rule?

Source: 1-65535
Destination: 9000-9040 
Protocol: UDP

If not try that please. Allocating to services and devices at the same time wouldn't really work unfortunately.

Alright, thanks for the info and clarification. How did you know to put source as 1-65535

[Netduma Fraser 11,634]

It's the default, you never really know what the source port will be, that's always subject to change so the ports they give will be the destination.

Alright, thanks. This helps a lot.
