    Which version of QoS to use for gaming

    Thanks I'll try this now and see how it goes over the next few days. Greatly appreciate the help!

    Which version of QoS to use for gaming

    Thanks heaps for all the useful information! I'm a bit of a noob though and I'm still having a bit of a hard time figuring out what to enter here or if I should put anything at all. If I wanted to leave this blank should I just use a space and enter? Or leave it as raw? Or is there an option I...

    Which version of QoS to use for gaming

    I managed to get amtm installed with Entware and then Cake-qos. Thanks for the help! I'm now wondering what the best options are in Cake haha. What queue priority should I use and should I use any extra options? A the minute I'm just using the besteffort queue and the raw extra option as I...

    Which version of QoS to use for gaming

    Are there any guides about how to install Cake? I have no idea about JFFS stuff. I've enabled the use of them in the admin settings but can't find how to add in scripts.

    Which version of QoS to use for gaming

    I just recently bought an Asus 86U and was wondering what version of QoS I should use to get the best performance while gaming. I'm currently using the latest Merlin firmware. My internet speeds are 350 down and 35. I've heard of Cake which seems to be pretty good but have no idea how to...

    Slow speeds and lag on new Asus 86U

    Awesome! As a bit of a side question, does it matter which PCI slot a wifi adapter is in? My GPU is blocking my x1 slot so I'm using another x16 slot on the bottom of my motherboard. It's an Asrock Z77 Extreme 4-M.

    Slow speeds and lag on new Asus 86U

    Would using Asus wifi Mesh with an old 68U and plugging my pc into that work alright?

    Slow speeds and lag on new Asus 86U

    Thanks for the great information! I'm a bit confused by "I would still recommend a full 'router' used in Bridge mode over the PCE adaptors above." Do you mean plugging a router into my pc and using it as a wifi adapter to connect to my 86U? The PCE-AC56 looks pretty nice though, definitely...

    Any specific adapters you would recommend? Also are there any major differences between USB and PCI adapters?

    Slow speeds and lag on new Asus 86U

    Yeah there seems to be a lack of updated drivers for it. People have said to try all sorts of different ones but they seem to give the same result. I'm thinking of maybe just buying a new one, I have a feeling it might not be any better though haha.

    Slow speeds and lag on new Asus 86U

    Hmm, scratch that. I'm getting very close to max speeds on my iPhone again with the settings I showed just before. So I guess channels 112 and 48 don't actually effect download speed after all? Weird that my Iphone is able to get max speeds but my pc can't, I thought I had a decent wifi adapter...

    Slow speeds and lag on new Asus 86U

    These are my settings atm. Is everything in check? I also disabled roaming assistant for 5ghz. It changed to channel 48 though. With the channel it put me on I seem to get about 40mbps less download speed. The only reason I wouldn't believe it's the cable is because I've been able to hit max...

    Slow speeds and lag on new Asus 86U

    I don't believe I am near an airport or military zone. Only problem is with channels 36 to 48 I seem to get slower download speeds.

    Slow speeds and lag on new Asus 86U

    Yes please! Unfortunately I don't have a laptop with an ethernet slot to test it. I've currently gone back to the Hub to see if it's laggy on there as well so I'll see how it goes. I'll try this tonight, thanks. Is there any benefit from using channel 36 over 140 or 112?

    Slow speeds and lag on new Asus 86U

    I turned off QoS and did a speed test on my pc and get the same results. I noticed switching from channel 140 to 112 on 5GHz makes a difference in speed. Are there specific settings I should be using here to help with latency and speed? For example the width and channel?

    Slow speeds and lag on new Asus 86U

    What should I do with it? I have it enabled and on bandwidth limiter atm.

    Slow speeds and lag on new Asus 86U

    To add to this, most of the devices are using the 5GHz band. The wifi settings seems to be the same as they were on the Hub.

    Slow speeds and lag on new Asus 86U

    We recently got 362 down and 36 up fibre broadband with Virgin Media here in the UK. I ran a few speed tests when we first got the broadband modem and the speeds were exactly as advertised as long as you were in the same room as the modem. In my bedroom upstairs though, it would be halved...

    QoS causes network issues

    So I don't know if it was the update for the telstra modem, but I changed the WAN setting on the 68U to PPPoE instead of Automatic IP and somehow I now have QoS enabled and everything is working fine. So maybe the router was having some issues?

    QoS causes network issues

    Is there any way to see if my telstra modem is up to date? I looked around on the modem for a while and it was coral 15.1 I believe. However, when I put it back into bridge mode it actually updated as is now currently 10.3.V.A. My modem is the technicolor tg587n v3.
