When another device on the network is uploading, I experience horrid latency issues (>2000ms on a ping). Router is RT-AC5300. I originally noticed the problem whilst gaming, besides being completely obvious whilst playing, I was kicked from gaming servers due to excessive ping. I can't even watch a youtube video when another device is uploading.
I've tried adaptive QoS, traditional QoS and bandwidth limiting. The only thing that "solves" the problem is bandwidth limiting upload to 0.6Mb which is really non-ideal. I'm on cable and my speeds vary a lot.
Offpeak 100Mb/s down, 2Mb/s up
Peak 12Mb/s down. 0.9Mb/s up (or worse)
For my test, I have a phone on WiFi uploading a file to Mega. It looks like web browsing in QoS statistics.
My PC is doing little more than "ping 8.8.8.8 /t". The attached screenshot is with adaptive QoS set to custom, with the order Gaming, Video, VoIP, Web, File Transfer, Others. Bandwidth setting is on automatic. The results are roughly identical unless I use the bandwidth limiting to limit the device to 0.6/0.7Mb/s. My current max upload speed is around 1.2Mb/s. I've tried all the Queue Discipline modes too.
Ideally I'd give uploads like this this lowest priority (but that doesn't seem to be helping at all?), at this point I'd probably just be happy giving my PC highest priority for everything (but that doesn't work either)

tldr: Everything is laggy or unusable when another device on the network is uploading anything
