Bandwidth Sharing

I have a home network with the CM600 as my cable modem with an Apple Aiport Extreme as a router.  I have one PC that is hardwired into the LAN port and it consumes most of my network bandwidth when streaming a video.  The wireless users suffer tremendously.  Is there anyway through the Cable Modem to limit the bandwidth of a specific device going through the Cable Modem?

  • The CM600 does not have any QoS settings.  QoS is usually provided on routers.  Unfortunately, the Airport Extreme does not offer QoS.

     

    Are you willing to stream video at a lower quality?  You may be able to control that in the application by choosing a lower resolution.
