Nighthawk r7000 QoS not working
Hi,
I have a Nighthawk R7000 connected to my internet provider's router. Wireless internet and LAN are working fine, but it doens't seem that QoS is working properly.
I want one pc (for gaming) to have highest priority. Dynamic QoS didn't work with this so I tried to manually set it up by device. All devices are set to 'normal' and the gaming pc to 'highest'. It diddn't work, as I still could use another pc or mobile phone to upload something and the game starts lagging. I tried to set QoS up by Service as well. I added the specific game (Rocket League), added the ports and set it to 'highest'. All other applications set to lower. I still have the same lagging issues when I use another device to upload something.
How do I solve this? Am I missing something? Or is this a problem with the providers router maybe?
Please post here in this section for this model router:
