traffic prioritizatoin xr500

is there an issure with the beta firmware you have been handing out and the traffic priorization not working correctly? i have tested with two differnent games on pc (battlefield 1 and lol) and neither one are being detected as high priority. i have tried with and with out them added as a rule in the traffic prioritization tab. i ask because although im seeing decent ping numbers, i am still getting in game lag. and as far as i can tell the router is not giving games high priority.

LoL yes but thats not specific to software, they will have updated something. Either way if you change your device to a console and add it then it'll work or add manual ports for the games

Re: traffic prioritizatoin xr500

thanks, that worked. but lets be honest, thats a pretty sloppy solution....why would one ever think to turn their pc into a console(i choose PlayStation) so that the router would detect a pc only game...and why not just have the beta with a read me in the downloads section, it seems incredibly inefficient to have to come to a forum and ask and then wait , not to mention slowing you guys down from actually fixing stuff
