QoS not working on Archer A72 Pro after firmware update

Tags: #Firmware Update #Bandwidth Control/QoS
Model: Archer AX72 Pro  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.4.1 Build 29250724 rel.49903

After the latest firmware update, QoS function no longer works.

I am able to enable it in settings, but the latency gets even worse without it.

 

Before the firmware update, when I enable QoS, I got ~3ms latency for both download and upload, now with the new update I get 10ms for download and 50ms for upload. When I disable it, the latency is 8ms download and 40ms upload. This is ridiculous.

 

I tried also lowering the download and upload max rate in QoS settings, but nothing changes... It is like QoS is not even working for some reason. Also tried restarting, no changes at all.

 

Please investigate and suggest solutions.

Hello@Inferno997,

Welcome to our community.

 

May I know the tools or website that you used to test the latency?

After the firmware update, have you changed any settings on the router?

In addition, what specific network activities are affected by latency? Here is the link with suggestions that may help you: What should I do if I get the high ping value from TP-Link Wi-Fi router?

 

Best Regards.

Tools used: Bufferbloat (primary tool), SpeedTest, Command prompt for quick ping and TCPOptimizer. I didn’t do anything actually, the first steps from my side were backtracking my day and seeing if I did something wrong. But the only thing changed was the firmware update on the router. I am doing wide variety of activities… gaming, streaming, remote desktop and so much more. The QoS I use mostly for the remote desktop for low input latency and stability. I also tried notifying the internet provider and they tested their network and assured me that its all good on their side.
