Newfie Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Could you try ringing this number, 17070. It’s the BT line test or quiet line test. It’s option 2. You should not hear anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 23, 2021 Administrators Share Posted February 23, 2021 How is his Xbox connected, via ethernet, WiFi, guest WiFi? I assume you don't have the console added in Traffic Controller or anything like that? Are you using PPPoE or anything like that on the R2?

Jakerod12 Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 Ok so this is madness, i went into device manager - Clicked on the Xbox and it was set to "Xbox". i changed this to games console Clicked on my Ps4 and that was set to "playstation". I changed this to games console. Literally fixed the ping spikes. Will keep you updated though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zippy Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 @Jakerod12 When your brother is downloading something heavy/big are you saying that then you receive full bandwidth on the device your on while this big download your brother is doing at the time?

Your connection shouldnt do that when your brother is downloading.. Your basically getting leftover crumbs.. Even though gaming takes very little bandwidth your connection going crazy like that I could see why you would begin to lag out.. Your connection should remain stable or somewhat stable even with your brother downloading something big.. Thats basically the whole point of QoS.. Keeping your connection stable while getting the most out of your connection.. Have you messed around with your distribution flower at all? If you have id reset it.. Keep everything even.. Thanks!

Zippy. Its exactly what im trying to figure out, i need some help but i have literally no idea whats going on. The flower is untouched, all even. Correct d/u speeds, but then he downloads on his xbox and via the connection benchmark test it all goes crazy. When hes finished, it goes stable again. This happens when ever there is a big download, not just from his Xbox. Could be from any other device in the house Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed your screenshots as well.. Thanks for posting your screenshots of that as well.. It helps to trouble shoot things easier..I seen your screenshot of your connection both when a big download is taking place and when not.. To me it sounds like you have everything setup correctly.. Hopefully Netduma can see whats the cause.. I myself am confused as to why this is happening.. I will follow this.. Im always very curious to understand things like this.. Imo your connection should remain stable even with bigger downloads going on.. Hope this gets sorted. If I think of anything else I will post. Zippy.

Is your traffic prioritisation rule detecting traffic when you're playing? Do you have the same problems if you disable 'Share excess' from the three-line menu in Bandwidth allocation?

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 2, 2021 Administrators Share Posted March 2, 2021 Could you check his console and see whether it is connecting via automatic or manual network settings? If manual switch it to automatic and see if it works better then please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 7, 2021 Administrators Share Posted March 7, 2021 Can you do a factory reset please, then just change the QoS settings but nothing else, make sure all devices are connected and then try again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
