Game lag xr700
Hi, I have a nighthawk xr700 which is configured with QoS and game traffic prioritization (by port). when i am playing warzone on my ps5 and the apple tv is playing at the same time, the game bec...
Do you currently have Congestion Control configured? What are the speeds you get from your ISP and what percentage do you have the sliders set to in Congestion Control?
It's important to use this because it moves the queue of traffic from upstream routers down to the XR700, allowing it to appropriately prioritise your important traffic.
Hi
download speed tests show that i have 600Mbps for download and 95 Mbps for upload.
i have set the download speed on my router to 350 Mbps, and upload at 85 Mbps (not exactly matching the actual test values, leaving some room in the bandwidth).
I have set the anti-bufferbloat to 70% for both download and upload. (when high priority traffic detected).
QoS for ps5 is set at 30%. Share excess option is deselected.
I'd suggest setting your speeds in DumaOS a little more accurately than this, closer to 600.
Presumably the Apple TV is also connected directly to the XR700, yes?
If that's the case, could you please try disabling all rules in Traffic Prio and create a new one for the PS5. Select 'Games Console' when prompted to select a service.
Let us know if that works better.
i have attached a screen shot of the rules i have. i only have ps5 rules which are set to console.
if i delete them i have to create them again. (p.s. i only created the rules 10 days ago after I started experiencing lags.
regarding the connectivity: Apple TV <--> TP link router <--> XR700... All connections are via ethernet.
