Re: QoS for equal bandwidth sharing?

Here's an update: The application protocols are still not catching anything. And despite the fact that I'm using the default QoS settings, I'm still only getting 3 or 4 Mbps down out of the 60 total for the household. It's clearly NOT splitting the bandwidth equally between all of us. I don't seem t...

Re: QoS for equal bandwidth sharing?

Okay... thanks... I suppose that's the best solution. I will make a Service Class for "games" for everyone to share, with a decent amount of bandwidth, and ping priority. I don't think the "BitTorrent" application protocol works, though. I think I'll just create fast Service Clas...

Re: QoS for equal bandwidth sharing?

That was awesome... I just spent an hour meticulously typing out a vast array of Classes and Rules for Gargoyle's QoS, and when I hit "Save", the router logged me out erasing everything I had changed.

So. Awesome. :roll:

Re: QoS for equal bandwidth sharing?

Okay... here's a hypothetical situation: I want everyone to share 20 percent of the bandwidth equally. But I still want to have QoS for particular activities. Let's say... I set my video streaming to, say 10 percent, my games to 5, my VOIP to 4, and my BitTorrent to 1 percent. These are now percenta...

Re: QoS for equal bandwidth sharing?

And not only do I have to have separate classes for each user's activities... I then have to make a separate rule for each activity going to each one of their devices.

5 users * 3 activities * 3 devices = 45 packet rules! YIKES!

Re: QoS for equal bandwidth sharing?

Okay, but what about everyone else's games? I suppose I have to make a SallyGames class, a SallyVOIP class, a SallyBitTorrent class, and a SallyMiscellaneous class. And then repeat that for everyone... Phew. Good thing Gargoyle allows an arbitrary number of Service Classes. Just have to decide how m...

QoS for equal bandwidth sharing?

Hi there! New to Gargoyle and new to the forum, so please allow this to be my obligatory newbie first question. I bought a Gargoyle compatible router (barely... the Archer C7 v2) and installed Gargoyle because it seemed like the ONLY consumer-grade solution for real bandwidth and quota control. Now....
