davemarsden132 Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Hi guys, Please see below images of how I have my setup and how maybe I should have it. I am not too sure, you may wonder why I want the Eero's to run my WIFI only and thats because I cant get wifi in my garage which has been converted to a cinema. With the EERO i can mesh wifi it to the back of the garage, it also helps for signal around my home with regards to my Ring cameras which are pretty much 360. Thats the reason really for the EERO's I'm basically constantly getting C on ping under load, with it reaching 100ms all the time on download. Upload is not too bad. I have literally spent HOURS, an i mean HOURS. moving my download QoS slider from 5% - 100% and nothing makes a difference. This is why i am wondering if its the way i have my network setup that is the problem Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 28, 2023 Administrators Share Posted January 28, 2023 So I'm assuming you're using the XR700 beta is that correct? In that case we are still improving the results for Connection Benchmark so it won't always be super accurate. It also uses the Google servers to determine the results so depending on your connection to Google this could impact it. Also Ping Under Load/Bufferbloat will only occur with your connection saturated, if you're using QoS that will not happen and so you wouldn't see those kind of results. As well as this, a C grade is very much open to interpretation, can you provide a screenshot of the actual results graph? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemarsden132 Posted January 28, 2023 Author Share Posted January 28, 2023 So should it be Image 1 or Image 2 above? Please also see below screenshots asked for Thanks again for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 28, 2023 Administrators Share Posted January 28, 2023 Image 1 would allow the router QoS to work most effectively so that is what I would recommend. Use this guide while downloading big files, streaming etc to saturate the connection while experimenting with the Congestion Control percentages, do you see the same spike/high ping? If you don't then you can ignore the Ping Under Load results. https://support.netduma.com/en/support/solutions/articles/16000074717-how-to-test-your-internet-ping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 29, 2023 Administrators Share Posted January 29, 2023 Just gaming won't saturate the connection but those results are fine, the bottom graph is what you want to focus on and there is no packet loss there so it's a good plot, quite stable ping.

davemarsden132 Posted January 30, 2023 Author Share Posted January 30, 2023 Sound so the below image is when i was downloading World of Warcraft on battle.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 30, 2023 Administrators Share Posted January 30, 2023 Okay so now experiment with the Congestion Control percentages while set to Always to see what lowers those spikes and eliminates the red bars as much as possible.
