QoS doesn't work on my DGN2000

Hi!

I am a DGN2000 owner and I have no idea why QoS does not work: my pc always has the lowest priority (even if I put it at the highest) ... My brother's pc, when he downloads the files, does not even allow me to navigate. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

    Thats a pretty old (2008) device that i"m surprised even has QoS.

    Its wifi is going to be anemic in speeds as its a old wireless G device. 

    And even its dsl speeds aren't going to be much. In this day/age, most devices are going to overwhelm it. 

     

    Not sure what speeds you pay for on your dsl but it might be time to look into upgrading.

      Hi.

      Thanks for your reply.

      I've firmware v1.1.11.0 which has QoS capabilities.

      DGN2000 is fine for my ADSL speed (current speeds... yes, in 2021 it can still happen):

        I used a DGN834G (if I remember correctly) but it fried out during a storm... That modem router was excellent in managing QoS (even if it had no QoS settings feature).
