Does traditional qos work in the newest merlin firmware 380.64 on asus rt68ac

[Kilthar]

hi,

I want to use traditional qos on my asus rt68ac but read somewhere on the forums here that the old builds had broken traditional qos and it did nothing (and only bandwidth limiting worked).

Does it work properly on rt68ac with merlin firmware 380.64?

Thx,


Kilthar

It doesn't. Some people are having moderate luck by inverting the upload and download speed on the QoS configuration page, but I don't think that truly addresses the issues involved.

Is it an asus bug and are they aware of it ?

Any info from them if they are going to fix it?

It would be really nice to be able to use qos.

Does it not work in the newest stock firmware as well?

wait this still dont work on on some asus routers? AC66U still one few that still works? or has that ceased working too seeing for last few months I been using limiter instead.

Asus are aware of the issue, but this isn't a priority at the moment since Adaptive QoS is what they recommend people use on affected models.

Would you recommend running QOS if I was on a RT-68U running Asuswrt? I am a xbox gamer via Ethernet...

Everyone's situation is different. There's no global "correct" answer to that question, it depends on your needs, the speed of your Internet connection, the number of users on your network, the type of network activity, etc...
