How to disable QoS
How do I disable the QoS function on this equipment? I cant find the option to disable it. It seems to have been more trouble than its worth. I keep getting random ping spikes and packet loss in 2 dif...
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
I actually have a Netgear CM1000. My ISP only supports a limited number of modems and this was the only Netgear wired only modem that was available. I work for my ISP and everything looks good signal wise up to the modem and i'm only seeing two time outs that haven't been recent.
Ok just checking for a router at the modem.
Any other traffic happening while gaming? Something else going on besides gaming?
Disconnect ALL other devices or turn them off to see if the spikes still happen...
Ok i'll give that a shot when I get home after work tonight. We just had a ton of devices on the network and the QoS appeared to have been keeping them in check but I'm not quite sure I had the anti buffer float set up right. I tried turning it off and things just seem to have gotten worse. I do twitch streaming so i'm really hoping I can find a happy medium for all these settings. My PC is wired in when I get packet loss on certain games with a cat6 cable and my brother that plays Fortnite started experiencing similar issues.
- Yeah QoS off is a bad idea, if you follow that guide to optimise Anti-Bufferbloat you should be good. Take a look at this also to try the other QoS settings: http://support.netduma.com/en/support/solutions/articles/16000077073-dumaos-optimal-settings-guide-qos
