Windows 10 QoS?

Doxxy
Go to solution Solved by Jon Jon,

If your network doesn't support QoS, then it would ignore the flags being set by you at your PC.

 

Basically, your router (since that is what you are connecting to), needs to honor the QoS flags being set.

I've made custom QoS rules in gpedit.msc (more specifically mmc, but the rules I made & saved appear in gpedit.msc). I set TS3 as a DSCP value of 63 for example, yet when I upload files in FileZilla my ping in TS3 still goes over 400, which is a bit of a pain. I tried to use regedit and made the key in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\QoS called "Do not use NLA" and set it to 1, but my ping in TS3 still goes over 400. I'm wondering if there's any fix for this? My router is a stock BT HomeHub 5, so that does not support QoS.

EDIT: If I apply a rate limiter using the group editor to fzsftp.exe it works and limits the throughput but QoS doesn't seem to..?

I was under the impression that Windows does its own QoS and then it's the router that does its own QoS..? Oh well, I guess you learn something new every day :/ Thanks for the help.

It depends on the type of QoS being used.

 

DSCP is for advanced networks with multiple hops, routes and firewalls and is a way to tag traffic with a priority that will follow it through the network which rules can be applied to. This simplifies the configuration as you don't have to setup tagging rules at each point just the priority queues and which DSCP values go in to each one.

 

Your general home router doesn't support DSCP.
