How to use Flow Controller settings

2023-11-10 14:55:26 - last edited 2025-02-28 07:37:18

Model: Archer AX55

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.2.3 Build 20230603 rel.46473(5553)

What is the purpose of the Flow Controlller function (Advanced--> LAN --> Flow Controller)? It has options for RX Enable and TX Enable. On my router TX Enable is set although I don't recall ever enabling this. I am tempted to disable both RX and TX.

@stephen435

Flow Control is a feature usually used in the business grade devices:

"With this option enabled, when a device gets overloaded it will send a PAUSE frame to notify the peer device to stop sending data for a specified period of time, thus avoiding the packet loss caused by congestion. By default, it is disabled."

So you can disable this feature - nothing to worry about.
