The best QoS configuration for TP-LINK WR841ND?

Post by mcbravo »

I need to limit the access speed of my internet for my family at home during family gatherings. I work at home, even on weekends and have this following network installation:

Overall, I would just like that every device connected to the network visible TP-LINK WR-841ND suffer bandwith limitation.

NOTE: The modem that distributes internet settings are not modifiable

Note: The TP-LINK WR-841ND Router is connected to access point to a hidden network (SSID In transmission) and I have other devices connected to the same network, and would not suffer bandwidth limiting.


Anybody can help-me? I'm three days trying to fix this, I'm exhausted.

Set the maximum speed on your QoS config page to the limited speed you want to apply to the aggregate of all devices.
You can then apply QoS rules on an individual basis if you don't want to equally share this part of the network.

Hi mate setting up QOS is about the speed of your connection. Do a speed test on a speed testing web site and then set your Total (Upload) Bandwidth: and Total (Download) Bandwidth: To what ever the speed testing web site says they are.
You have to knock a bit off the top of your upload and dounload for QOS to work rite. EG wen i do a speed test i get 7.1 MB dounload and 700 KB upload, so for my Total (Upload) Bandwidth: I put 6900 kbits/s and for my download I put 70000 kbits/s. The rules that come as standard are not to bad so if you haven't mest with them to much then leve them and see how you go. The QOS rules that come setup ready for you will try and shair all the bandwith out between your devices.
