Bufferbloat only occurs when the connection is saturated and at your speeds that is quite hard to do. I would recommend you try different percentages and find what feels best to you when gaming - every connection is different so it's hard to give a definitive value but we usually recommend 70% as a starting point
- But feels like for upload even if I put Qos at 25% and always, I still get full speed
- What is the modem model the XR is connected to? Are you using PPPoE, VLAN or IPv6 on the XR?
- The router is connected to the fiber using vlan 201
