I bought an M5 MR5100 for gaming/streaming on Twitch

My question is what are the best settings? Read the QoS settings, but my Nighthawk does not allow QoS settings. There's nothing for QoS at all.

 

How can I make the most of my Netgear Nighthawk M5 MR5100 for gaming?

 

Thank You,

    There's not a lot for gaming. You're already a bit limiting because the ping/latency is going to be higher over a mobile connection than a hardwired connection. 

    Your best bet is to make sure your gaming/twitch device is hardwired into the MR5100 for the best speeds.
