QOS on Orbi is it enabled or disabled?

[RonV42]

Ok so I am on the QOS page and there is nothing to say it's enabled or disabled.  Ran the speed test on the page and it shows the resutls but no indication of QOS is turned on or off.   We need a checkbox or somthing here for enableing and disabling.

Worked. The HTML has to be changed to HTM.

on my way to buy an Orbi.  Will watch this thread.  Have you tried another browser?  Looks like your missing alot of options as per my R7000

[RonV42]

Yes I logged into it with 4 different browsers:

• EDGE
• IE11
• Firefox
• Chrome

Same page on all 4...not a browser issue.

when you run the speed test it asks you if you want to set the speed test as the qos on the latest fw , this is then used as auto qos

[RonV42]

It never asks to question to use it just displays the results on the page...I assume it's using it but again there needs to a way to turn off and on.

[peteytesting]

i think at this stage you would have to factory reset

setting the max qos is a good thing anyway as it stops any one device from hoging the whole bandwidth

[RonV42]

Reset to factory isn't a acceptable solution.  It would be like asking me to replace my car engine after I did maintenance.

[darkneo29]

Agreed that is crazy.

[peteytesting]

the qos is still a work in progress , in time it will be like it is on the r8500 etc , just in baby steps

Hey peteytesting, what kind of throughput can we expect with QoS enabled?

[dg_sticks]

This is killing me! I believe that the lack of QoS options are holding my LAN speeds back dramatically, but I have no way to verify since I have zero options on the QoS page other than the speedtest. I believe that the factory reset is ridiculous as well. Does anyone have a solution to get the QoS page to show all options? 

[Dan_H]

Have you tried this page, after logging in to the ortbi?

/QOS_main.htm

There are a whole bunch of QoS related directories in there this one looks liek it might help too.

/QOS_Dynamic.htm

[RonV42]

Thanks for the links but until Netgear exposes them from the UI I would be hesitent to try.

Thanks for these useful QoS links!  Now I can make sure QoS is disabled.

What are the default settings on these hidden pages supposed to be?

[Retired_Member]

Dynamic one doesn't seem to exist on mine.

[PhoenixV]

You have to use the syntax as follows:

/QOS_dynamic.htm

instead of /QOS_Dynamic.htm

[martyfp]

do any of these hidden QoS pages actually work ?

Actually, a more accurate analogy would be to reset your ECM after doing maintenance, which is not a bad idea.
