Hello @Serbian_Fantom, thank you for posting in the TP-Link community.

 

QoS prioritizes network traffic to ensure optimal performance for critical applications. It identifies and classifies traffic types (e.g., video streaming, gaming, web browsing) based on protocols, ports, or IP addresses, and assigns priority levels to each type. For example, video streaming might be given higher priority over general web browsing.

 

When checking for bufferbloat with third-party software, it's possible that low-priority traffic or data is being analyzed by the software when QoS is enabled on the router. This can lead to noticeable differences in performance when QoS is enabled versus disabled.

 

Aside from bufferbloat, it seems the Download/Upload is also affected after enabling QoS on the BE230. Have you tested the speed using speedtest.com with QoS disabled and enabled?

 

BTW, can you share the screenshots of the QoS settings on the BE230?
