 tet @onelinkpr.net | [Help Me] WRT-54G Tomato QoS settings for gamer brothers Hi. I'm trying to manage QoS in order to make sure we don't lag during games. We play the same games on PC:
Heroes of Newerth Origin games: BF3 Steam games (L4D series, DotA 2 Beta, BF:BC2, etc) Blizzard games (WoW, Diablo 3 Beta, SC2)
Our connection is 4mbit (yes i know that's low but it's all we can afford). It consistently operates at these speeds: quote: Last Result: Atlanta, GA Download Speed: 4171 kbps (521.4 KB/sec transfer rate) Upload Speed: 366 kbps (45.8 KB/sec transfer rate)
We usually can play without problems unless someone starts streaming a video from Youtube, downloading from steam, downloading from Origin, downloading from Blizzard updateds, if looking at high res images, or if someone starts downloading something. So basically all downloads (and uploads) lag our connection to games.
Therefore I tried setting up QoS so that gaming goes interrupted.
It is working great, except when we're NOT gaming which our downloads/WWW Downloads/WWW/streaming access go SUPER SLOW.
Here are my settings: 

The "gaby gaming in/out" thing is the rule I made for "gaming". Is there anyway we can consolidate these into one rule for both of us and for each platform we play our games on? |
