destructionfever Posted March 16, 2008 CID Share Posted March 16, 2008 Is this even a useful feature? When I turn it on in my router and they ask me what my speed is for upload and download...should I use the slower upload and download speed results I get from this site or should I use speedtest.net or speakeasy which say my speed is faster? What is an optimal way to use this feature so nothing in my network takes up too much bandwith? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mudmanc4 Posted March 16, 2008 CID Share Posted March 16, 2008 I use it for VOIP, this makes the VOIP router priority higher incase there is heavy network traffic. I turn it on in my router and they ask me what my speed is for upload and download...should I use the slower upload and download speed results I get from this site or should I use speedtest.net or speakeasy which say my speed is faster? I would use the advertised bandwidth. What is an optimal way to use this feature so nothing in my network takes up too much bandwith? Thanks Not at all unless you have a machine that you don't care what the usage is,and uses a lot, and will be limited when there is other network traffic.

destructionfever Posted March 16, 2008 Author CID Share Posted March 16, 2008 Thanks for clearing up the fact that I should use my advertised speeds and not actual line speeds because otherwise I would still be scratching my head lol.
