Xr1000 bandwidth allocation limiting upload speed not working

[nferguzl]

Has this bug been fixed in the latest firmware when used with PPPoE or should I use the previous firmware? Which settings help limit a device’s upload speed using the bandwidth allocation flower?

Are you using PPPoE/IPv6/VLAN? If so then you may still encounter the issue, if not then you can use Congestion Control to limit on a wide scale or Bandwidth Allocation with Share Excess disabled.

I’m using PPPoE, is there any way around this limitation?

[Netduma Fraser]

For the moment having a router or managed switch upstream (modem > router/switch > XR) handling PPPoE instead and having the XR connected to that would allow it to work.

Is this gonna ever be fixed? Don’t want to sound critical but just want to know if it is possible to correct and looked at by the dev team.

Yes absolutely, it is something we're looking at currently

Is this issue gonna be fixed in the next firmware update?

just got the xr1000 today and I don’t want to use another router in front of the xr.

[Netduma Fraser]

Yes I believe this is fixed in the next version, I can double check with the team

That’s good to know.

Thanks.
