QOS looks like this
Highest one is the device i want to prioritize.
I did factory reset few times after i installed the latest firmware. I still have the same issues.
I would try channel 40 or 149 on 5Ghz.
I would enable Smart Connect and Beamforming as well.
- I have to use dfs channel cause many other wifi networks around me broadcasts on regular channels and I can't use smart connect because it combines 2.4 ghz and 5ghz into one ssid. Beamforming doesn't fix the QOS issue.
- Okay so IPv6 is causing it, that may be resolved in the next version as well. Why are you unable to use normal channels and Smart Connect exactly?
- I can't use normal channels because normal channels are extremely congested. No one else around me uses Dfs channels. I get better speed and latency with dfs channels than regular channels. I want to keep 2.4 and 5ghz separate because i don't my PC and phone to connect to 2.4 ghz when my PC and phone gets disconnected or can't reach 5ghz.
