I want to setup some QOS rules via my Voyager 2110 router. Can you guys help me on that please?
Please help fill out this form for say an app like Bittorrent or Lime wire or any other resource hogging app. I play alot of EVE-online and Teamspeak comms app so i need all the bandwidth i can get.
Ive tried a limewire one.. im unsure if its correct tho..

The problem I think you will have is that with apps like bittorrent etc, there is no fixed port the app will use as such so its pretty difficult to block.
I do have one solution though, adding a traffic managment PC to the network, although I would imagine that you probably wouldnt want to do that!

Im not sure how this works, i assume when im not doing anything my kids using say limewire will be fine to download, but once i use my MMO and Teamspeak comms i suspect theyre download will be throttled or my packets take precedence?
is that correct?

a) amended the router to port forward
b) suffer from severe restrictions, due to NAT.

These rules should prioritise only the outbound traffic, if you want to add the inbound, add the following rules. This gets around the ports problem by slowing down all traffic to and from the limewire machine, 0-65535 is the full range of available ports

I threw out the router and replaced it with an old PC and threw smoothwall on it this now does everything needed especially stoping him DL things and getting to P**N sites.
Smoothwall dot org if you want to have a look been a big help as it also scans for nasties trying to come in via the web , e-mail , or his favorite toy MSN

Great minds think alike! This revelation came to me last night as I was switching off my PC and heading to bed. I will implement your idea later today and test it.
back later with good news hopefully.
