Router + QOS

[Defunct]

Hello,

Looking to upgrade my router with the main requirement that I need QOS.

Uploading files over wireless can easily slow or kill other connections on the network.

I have a 10/1 connection.

I either need QOS out the box that can limit upload/download speeds, definitely on wireless.

Or it needs to be flashable to something like DDW-RT.

I researched a few models but they all seem out of stock locally and now I'm just going in circles.

TL;DR

Need a decent ADSL router with QOS that's available in SA.

The house area isn't that big so the wireless range doesn't need to be that big.

Thanks

I'm also interested. Plus, it should be easy to setup. Not like the DLink 2750 settings that require a PhD to figure out.

Have you considered Mikrotiks routerboards? Their QoS functions are very good.

Hi Defunct and creeper,

The DrayTek Vigor2760n sounds like the perfect SoHo router for your needs.

The Vigor2760n's features include:
- VDSL/ADSL modem
- WiFi-n
- QoS
- 4x gigabit LAN ports
- 30 day trial of the router managed, cloud-based Web Content Filter

Have a look a live web demo of the Vigor2760n WebUI here, to get an idea of how user-friendly the config/setup can be.

If you have any queries, or would like to be put in touch with a DrayTek reseller in your area, feel free to give me a shout.

Yes, I also have that DLink and it's impossible to do.

And the routers that were recommended here all seem to be out of stock locally.
