FlexQoS FlexQOS Packet classification

[Orbxtal]

Hi,
I received my new ASUS router yesterday and I've been trying to setup FlexQOS properly for gaming and i'm a bit confused.. I applied the Gaming rule to my PC and made a specific Valorant Rule with the 8180:8181 ports, at the bottom, it seems like the packets are tagged as Gaming but then when I look at the graph above, everything seems to be going into "others", any idea why it's doing this?

Which router? The iptables rules no longer work properly on the newest models due to flowcache changes from Asus/Trend/Broadcom.

Nice choice, but yes, it’s affected by the newest changes on those platforms.

Depending on your ISP speeds, you can choose to manually disable flowcache or avoid using iptables rules.

FlexQoS - FlexQoS 1.2.5 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

Sorry I could not find that. Usually in the headers of each section there is a “Reset” link on the right-hand side. Is there someplace I can see all the rules that are in effect, either in the GUI or in the CLI? I don’t understand this. Are you clicking the Customize button first to see all...

Disabling Flow cache seems to do the trick! I will have to test further but I opened Valorant and it was appearing as gaming traffic, thank you. Also, what does Flow Cache do exactly? Tried looking it up and the answers are kind of vague..

Flow cache is part of the NAT acceleration necessary to achieve higher speeds. If your ISP DL speed is above 300 Mbit, you might have some trouble with flowcache disabled.

I see. Well, I have 450/50 and I can still reach the same speeds with it disabled so, that's great. Thanks for the help!
