Hi everyone,
I have 75 Mbps FioS going through a Netgear R7000 DD-WRT. I then connect a TrendNET Gig Ethernet 24 port switch to the R7000. Most devices in the house connect directly to the TrendNET switch. I get great bandwidth performance all over the house.
However, in one room, I only have one ethernet jack and have several wired devices that need connectivity (computer, printer, wifi access point, and Verizon Wireless Samsung network extender). So, I am using another TrendNET GigE switch in this room. The problem I am having is that when mobile calls are being placed over the network extender, and the computer attached to the same second switch is accessing the internet, I get jitter/congestion on the IP-based mobile call.
I am assuming the solution here is to use a QoS/managed switch in this room and to prioritize all traffic coming from/to the network extender over any other devices attached to this switch.
Do you agree? If so, which suitable QoS/managed switch would you recommend?
Thanks!
