Did it fix the thing?

Yes it did! Basically had to bypass the initial set up to get to that part. But all good!

Excellent. Those hidden ones are the hardest to find and the most useful to flag up.

Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

Something has happened, router lost connection this morning so I rebooted the router and since I’ve had awful latency issues. Went to game earlier and my in game latency was shooting up from 30 to 200-300 and then even up to 999!
Any suggestions or known fixes?- Netduma-FraserDec 03, 2022NetDuma PartnerWhat are your QoS Settings? Could you provide a screenshot of the page?
