Hello all.

I am planning to get the AX50. I want to connect it to my Huawei B618, so that the B618 works purely as modem, and AX50 handles all the router work.

The main reason I want to get a dedicated router is so that when someone is watching Netflix in the living room, I can still play online games on my PC with minimal lag. Currently the lag is so bad if streaming and gaming at the same time. I want to use the QOS feature (missing in B618).

So my question is, does the QOS feature on the AX50 works for this scenario? I read that bandwidth management is not supported by AX50.

Thanks!

PS: Fiber internet isn't an option currently, so the B618.

The speed is not much an issue, can go as high as 100Mbps, and ping usually 20-40ms.
It's just that when other users are streaming, gaming will be affected a lot.


I see.
So to effectively minimize the affect of bufferfloat, I need to limit bandwidth on some devices? Unfortunately I read the AX50 have this feature removed.
QOS will help too? If yes, is the QOS on the AX50 good enough?


Thanks for you reply guys!
