QOS of any value?
So I have Verizon Fios gigabit. When QOS option is enabled my speed slows to about 20mbps. With QOS disabled I get speeds of about 900mbps which is where I should be. After looking at various problem...
It can be useful if your internet speed is slow and you need a device to have more of your service but for most people with 1 gb high speed internet service your wifi devices limit the speed of you wifi. Since the fastest speed is 1gb and the speed of most routers 5ghz band is 1.3 gb qos is useless the 2.4 ghz band may see some help with its speed but still limited to 600mb on most routers.
Hi brainguynyc,
What is the model number of your router?
What is the firmware version of the router?
When QoS is enabled, what is the priority of your device?
