Guilherme Poersch Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Hey, guys! How are you doing? I need some more help with my QoS. My PS5 is hooked to an R2 via cable. My internet is 400MB Download and 200MB upload. My Congestion Control is set to 40% on both parameters. I use my Bandwith Allocation as shown on the image, with 50% reserved for the ps5. I also use the share donload and upload unchecked. From my understanding, It should give me something around 80MB down and 40MB upload on it. But, for some reason, when I test it there, it always gives me something around those results: almost 400MB download and between 5 and 10MB upload. Do you guys know the reason? Thank you!

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 8, 2022 Administrators Share Posted February 8, 2022 Can you show the top of the page as well please, as well as open Bandwidth Allocation to show that Share excess is disabled. Did you set the allocation using the panel on the right or did you drag it using the main part of the feature? Also gaming won't really use more than 1Mbps so you definitely don't need to be giving that much as it won't get used Guilherme Poersch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, thanks for the quick response! Here it is! 53 minutes ago, Netduma Fraser said: Did you set the allocation using the panel on the right or did you drag it using the main part of the feature? I did it changing the percentage on the right pannel. 54 minutes ago, Netduma Fraser said: Also gaming won't really use more than 1Mbps so you definitely don't need to be giving that much as it won't get used That's good to know! Is it better maybe to reduce the main percentage of the Congestion Control instead? My initial thought was to "give room" for the data allocating more room for the ps5 and saving it. Mostly because Teh other stuf at home won't use much band either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 8, 2022 Administrators Share Posted February 8, 2022 Thanks for that! Yes generally adjusting Congestion Control more will make a bigger difference to lag than Bandwidth Allocation - all Bandwidth Allocation does is allocate bandwidth, that in itself won't really help. When you click save on the right panel also click Update Distribution on the main part. If that doesn't work then set it using the main part and then update and see if it works.

Guilherme Poersch Posted February 8, 2022 Author Share Posted February 8, 2022 Hey! So I tried it this way but it still won't work. I still get 300+ MB. And it changes whenever I use the other devices on the network. It can drop to 200MB for example. Here are the images of the network on the PS5.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 8, 2022 Administrators Share Posted February 8, 2022 Are ALL devices connected to the R2? Are you using PPPoE, VLAN or DHCP identifiers to get a connection? Did you by any chance put the console in the DMZ or make a Traffic Controller rule for it?

I don't know if my knowledge goes that far to answer this question, but I have the PS5 on a reserved IP on the DHCP menu. My WAN is on DHCP, like on the picture. No VALN or PPoE. 26 minutes ago, Netduma Fraser said: Did you by any chance put the console in the DMZ or make a Traffic Controller rule for it? I did put on the DMZ! But I took it off to make a test and it still happens. And I have no Traffic Controller rules at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 8, 2022 Administrators Share Posted February 8, 2022 Thanks for the information, the only other thing that could be affecting it would be if you've made a custom Traffic Prioritization rule for the console, have you done that?

Guilherme Poersch Posted February 8, 2022 Author Share Posted February 8, 2022 WOW! Nailed it! Thank you! I'm still not getting full upload, but I really think this is a problem with the PS5 itself. Download matches perfectly. So what shloul I do? Keep prioritatization without applying to WAN maybe? Is there a way to make it work with Allocation and Prioritization?

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 9, 2022 Administrators Share Posted February 9, 2022 Great to hear that! So Traffic Prioritization supersedes Congestion Control/Bandwidth Allocation so if you've made a custom rule that includes the ports they use for the speed test (which it sounds like you may have done) then that is why it seemingly won't adhere to the percentage set. By default the console/game will be prioritized by DumaOS Classified Games so you could just enable that or add with the console service or add ports if you want but not using port 80/443. Then allocation will work as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps this is a flaw or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, that's expected behaviour, but perhaps we need to make it clearer to users in the interface what effect prioritising like this will have.
