Hardware Version : Not Clear

Firmware Version :

ISP :

I have a TP-Link Router TD-W8901G, a pretty old router. I have 2 computers connected via Ethernet cable and 1 smart phone connected via Wi-Fi. Problem is, when someone uses YouTube in one computer, internet in my computer crawls. Other sites don’t hog as much bandwidth as YouTube. I play Team Fortress 2 a lot and my ping increases from 150 to 800 the moment someone uses YouTube. I have tried bandwidth allocation via QoS, but with no luck because I can’t understand the friggin QoS page.
I have browsed so many pages, but all pages explain about other routers and new TP-Link Routers. I am hoping someone can guide me with QoS for my router. I want to provide equal bandwidth to both computers so I won’t lag as much. Here are the screenshots:

Thanks for the answer jimasek.I hope it works! Btw, is the a way i can give YouTube low priority in a similar way?

Also, it says:
Note :If QoS is applied in some single computer,please set the Source IP Address with Subnet Mask or Source MAC address in the rule.

How do i find out the Source IP address with Subnet Mask or Source MAC address of my computer or the other one?

What you need is bandwidth control. However, W8901G has no such a feature.
