I have had problems with my Linksys WRV-200 Router's QOS settings. I tried several methods of implementing QOS and none of them seem to work well.
Right now I'm using "Bandwidth Allocation" and have set up a custom bandwidth allocation by IP address. When I turn on my new Netflix Roku player, then the network has lots of problems. It seems that the Vonage Phone will work when the Roku player is on (which is a big plus), but even the most basic traffic grinds to a halt on the rest of the network. Any suggestions on better methods to implement QOS...
I also set up a router rule to turn off all access to the IP that the ROKU player is on during the day, so I can work, and an optional one to turn it off at other times (I even have a short cut on my wife's web browser so she can make router changes to this parameter which she is not normally very inclined to do).
It is pretty annoying to have to go to these lengths to make my network work when I bought a high end business class router.
