Bandwidth management on C7 Archer
Region : Canada
Model : Archer C7
Hardware Version : Not Clear
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Can anyone confirm if bandwidth management even working on C7? I was trying for a while but no matter what I do, my VM consumes all available bandwidth if I push it hard enough. I am not even talking about minimum (guaranteed?) bandwidth I was expecting I could use to ensure my work laptop is always getting a piece of the network.
The setup I have is simple:
- A VM with a static IP
- P2P application I use to generate enough volume
- On C7 I have Bandwidth Control - Control Settings - Ingress - 52000 (my link is ~51M) Enable Checked
- Bandwidth Control - Rule List: IP Range: Static IP of the VM - Blank, Ports - Blank, Protocol - ALL, Ingress min 0 max 45000 Enabled Check
Router rebooted.
Once I bring up P2P it always takes all 51M.
Am I doing it wrong or this simply was not meant to work?
If you know how to make it work, can you advice how to configure min bandwidth as well? I want to have a setup where two end points can have full access to available bandwidth but one would have a guaranteed pipe while the other can drop to 0 if necessary.
