Archer VR400 - QoS missing?

Model: Archer VR400  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 0.1.0 0.9.1 v0070.0 Build 160613 Rel.40404n

Hello, I've set up today my Archer VR400, and I'd like to use the QoS feature, but it seems to be missing?

I don't have any firmware update, and the manual seems to be outdated.

 

The only remotely close feature I have is "Bandwitch Control", which lets me select only ip range and not device name / mac address.

Anything I'm missing?

 

Thanks.

VR400 v1 FW version is from 2016 and if you see the following  interface:

 

 

then you have only Bandwidth Control, but not QOS.

Here's your user guide.

@terziyski Does setting priority to Bandwitch Control acts the same as QoS?

Thanks.

It's similar, just follow Chapter 5 in your user guide to do the configuration.

You can refer this guide as well.

@terziyski Thanks, but I'm still not entirely sure after reading that.

 

I basically want my connection to be stable while gaming, what would be the best way to achieve that with Bandwitch Control?

I'll obviously add a rule for my IP with the highest priority and maximum bandwidth, but do I need to configure something else?

 

Ideally, I wouldn't want to limit other connections always for no actual reason, but if I have no choice, I'll do that.

Do I need only 1 rule for myself being the highest priority, do I also need another rule for everyone else on the network to be low priority, or do I must limit everyone elses downstream/upstream?

 

Thanks.
