Reykc9510 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Having a hard time trying to adjust my xr1000 settings to get a better buffer bloat rating. If I disable QoS I get a higher download speed but worse grade. If I enable QoS I get my download speed cit in half but a better grade. I have 1 gig fiber going an coming. What am I doing wrong? I'm testing my connection off my lap top with a ethernet adapter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newfie Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Turn QoS off unless your household/Network is saturating your connection. On a gig up and down you should have no issues. These tests simulate if you saturated your connection but reality you probably never do. Looking at your screen shots you have a very quiet network, just disable QoS and don’t worry these online tests. KindaBusted 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reykc9510 Posted January 21 Author Share Posted January 21 So disable QoS completely even when I'm gaming? Yes I my network is quite it's just me here. So by doing this it would help with my hit detection issue? I'm fairly new at tech stuff. Learning as I go.. thanks for your reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzy Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Hi ! @Reykc9510 If you want congestion control to take effect on this test, just set it to always! By setting it to auto, as long as you don't have a priority packet it won't take effect! 😉 Zippy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reykc9510 Posted January 21 Author Share Posted January 21 I'm not sure I understand..

Yes turn it off, QoS takes up resources, the less services the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reykc9510 Posted January 21 Author Share Posted January 21 Cuts download speed in half. I know I'm doing something wrong pr not using something right. Damn hit detection is horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzy Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Reset your QoS settings. You have undoubtedly disabled shared bandwidth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinalcrack Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 This is more a Windows issue than a router issue. Here is how to get a Grade A. Download the "Grade_A_Buffer_Bloat.spg" config file attached and remember where you saved it. Download TCP Optimizer v4 (or whatever the latest version is) https://www.speedguide.net/downloads.php Install and run as Administrator. Make sure "Modify All Network Adaptors" is checked - middle left of the settings screen Click File -> Import Choose the .spg file (remember where you saved it?) It will now show an Import option on the bottom left Click Apply changes A window will pop up showing all the changes it is about to make - they all can easily be reversed - check Create a backup and save it - any issues follow the same steps and choose the backup (but there won't be any issues). Once complete, restart your PC and rerun the buffer bloat test. Congrats on your A :) Grade_A_Buffer_Bloat.spg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairypusher Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 what is your complete setup? Router from the internet provider and then the XR1000? What is the exact name of your USB network card? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKNESS Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 @Fuzy@Reykc9510It won't matter QOS for cloud flare is not available on the XR1000 so it not going to prioritize it I have requested for the DPI to be updated 3-6 months ago and still nowhere be found since it hasn't been updated the only alternative is forcing prioritization to the device your using and to find the optimal QOS is to use ping plotter and look for when it gets saturated. In addition yes in most cases you won't saturate your connection with those speeds but some households do so if you dont have a proper QOS well your going to enjoy some packet loss from time to time when it get saturated out of the nowhere thinking it your ISP.

What is the exact name of your USB network card? I have my XR1000 wired directly from my metronet fiber modem. From there I have my laptop wired from XR1000. MY PS5 wired from my XR1000 an I have my orbi router wired from the XR1000 an also another laptop for my security camera's. For some reason my nest camera's won't run off XR1000 wifi. I'm using all cat 8 ethernet cables also. I'm just tryin to get better hit registration don't ever notice lag or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand what most of that means. I'm just trying to utilize the Xr1000 to the best I can. I bought it because it's supposed to be one of the top gsmong routers, however it's not easy to set up. I'm not very tech savvy so I'm just learning ad I go. I set up the easier part the Geo-Filter. It seems if I disable QoS my download speed is doubled. Just the upload latency is very high. I don't even know if that applies to when I'm playing mw3.

Newfie Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Those tests just simulate your connection if saturated. In your case I doubt it’s an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DARKNESS Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 @Reykc9510 Use this software https://www.pingplotter.com/ and try and saturate your connection by doing speed test and if it spikes you have to keep decreasing your cc settings till it doesn't spike any longer.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 21 Administrators Share Posted January 21 I think the best thing would be to take some time going through the optimal settings guides here which will help you: https://support.netduma.com/support/solutions/folders/16000090646 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
