QoS misbehaving

AC66U - .40 - 45mb/4mb internet

I enabled QoS and setup my profiles. The first probelm I noticed is setting "Minimum reserved bandwidth" to 0% excludes that upstream profile from QoS entirely. It must be >=1% or it will get full speed.

How to reproduce:
Set Min reserve to 0%, max limit to 1%, then try to upload something under that profile, it won't be throttled. Then change min reserve to 1% and it should be heavily throttled.

The second problem is I don't see throttling of my downstream traffic until I lower the maximum bandwidth limit on that profile to 35%. It estimates it would use 15.75mb/s @ 35%, but it actually uses closer to 38mb/s.

And the 3rd problem I have... Say i set the max download limit to 30% on all my profiles. If I do just p2p (classified as lowest), it uses about 30mb/s. If I use just http (classified as high), it uses about 30mb/s. If I do both at once, it maxes out my link. Is this expected behaviour? I never want my link to max out, but I want both to use as much of the link as possible, with http taking priority over p2p.

Thanks!
