xr1000 not limiting upload to device
Using a xr1000 firmware 1.0.0.64_1.0.49 windows 11 I'm having an issue with a Nanit baby monitor causing lag spikes while gaming. I've tried limiting its upload use in the QoS to 0.4 Mbps with up...
Do you know if you currently require PPPoE, VLAN or DHCP identifiers in order to get a connection to the internet?
We have seen from a couple of other users that QoS is struggling to throttle upload when using one of the above methods for a connection.
I’m pretty sure it’s DHCP
As a test, could you set Congestion Control to 'Always', then run a third-party speed test.
Do the speed test results show upload as being throttled by Congestion Control or are they exceeding the limit?
Speed test on wirless laptop upload 20 Mbps, on my phone 21 Mbps, wired pc 4.21 Mbps. The laptop and phone are set to 0.82 Mbps, and pc is set to 4.94 Mbps. Seems the wireless devices aren't being throttled.
Network speeds being measured by the xr 1000 are 500 down and 22 up.Do you know if these devices use MAC randomisation? Most Android phones and particularly Apple devices use this.
If you're using Apple devices, disable 'Private Address' from the Wi-Fi settings for the XR Wi-Fi network.
For Android devices it tends to vary so you may need to lookup how to do that.
