The Honest Tiger Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 As you can see I clearly have QoS set to send most of my download and upload to my PS5, it's working for the upload yet shows my PC taking most of the bandwidth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 5, 2022 Administrators Share Posted September 5, 2022 Gaming barely uses any bandwidth so that amount of allocation isn't needed as it won't be used. The reason it is happening is because you have share excess enabled which allows other devices that need more bandwidth to take it from devices that don't need it.

I just checked and I never had share excess enabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 5, 2022 Administrators Share Posted September 5, 2022 The X axis is the bottom data shown, so i.e. on this one how much bandwidth was actually being used. I expect not much data was actually being used given the console doesn't use much and the other device was within its allocation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 5, 2022 Administrators Share Posted September 5, 2022 So your total speeds are around 255Mbps is that right? 4% would be around 10 and 10% for your other device would be close to 30ish so it looks about right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 5, 2022 Administrators Share Posted September 5, 2022 I'd suggest re-enabling Share Excess as that will help, what settings are you using for Congestion Control as that is the main feature that will prevent lag occurring.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 5, 2022 Administrators Share Posted September 5, 2022 How do you have Traffic Prioritization setup? If that's setup & working then it should just be a case of enabling share excess to resolve the lag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you provide a couple full page screenshots, ensuring you show Congestion Control in it's entirety as well as Traffic Prioritisation? This will help us see if there's anything else we could be missing here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's lower than ~900mbps download, you need to update this in the three-line menu in Congestion Control -> Set Bandwidth speeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 7, 2022 Administrators Share Posted September 7, 2022 You shouldn't really be experiencing that kind of lag with your speeds, especially with QoS enabled. What is the model of the modem/router the XR is connected to? Are ALL devices connected to the XR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seen this now, everything is connected to the XR, I had to do remote play in order to stream without issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted September 27, 2022 Administrators Share Posted September 27, 2022 I have the same hub and I find the modem mode to be a bit unstable, I’d suggest putting it in router mode then putty no the XR WAN IP in its DMZ instead. Then experiment with QoS to find that sweet spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
