XR 500 set up for 50mbps upload and 15mbps download and 20 ping
Hello All,
Im trying to determine the best setup for my XR500 with these less than impressive internet stats 50mbps upload and 15mbps download and 20 ping (Best service in my area AT&T Uverse). Does anyone have any advice? Also Should I assign the nighthawk with a static IP? What other info would be helpful to know.
-I already put my Pace 5268AC into bridge mode.
- Give the router a static IP is a good idea but not necessary.
For QoS make sure you've input the correct speeds into Anti-Bufferbloat settings. Then recommend setting Anti-Bufferbloat to 'Always' with 70% for both download and upload sliders. Leave Bandwidth Allocation as is and leave Traffic Prioritization with DumaOS Classified Games enabled.
