PS5 download taking all the bandwidth. How do I limit download speed?
I have a Nighthawk MK83 system. The PS5 is hardwired/ethernet to a multi ethernet splitter up on the third floor. That ethernet is being run from the main router on the bottom floor to the third floo...
Either way, cabling is not the issue though. Most likely it is a setting on the router that could limit the PS5.
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update? A complete pull of the power adapters for a period of time after the factory reset then walk thru the setup wizard and setup from scratch with a wired PC and web browser. Recommend setting the default DHCP IP address pool range to the following after applying and a factory reset: 192.168.#.100 to 192.168.#.200.

Run a Speed test on the MRs web page.
QoS is mostly automatic on the MK systems. Nothing to configure.
