My new isp gateway suffers from terrible buffer bloat and has no modem only or bridge mode. Plus it uses carrier grade nat. I have an asus router running openwrt firmware and have had a nightmare trying to bridge them without either double nat or a los of qos. Now have a managed switch running pfsense qos and prioritizing traffic and have reverted the asus back to og firmware and running in ap mode and it seems to ve working well!

There's a bit of misinformation here unfortunately and quite a bit to address, but the major points being: QoS *only* makes a difference if you're running into some form of contention and want to prioritize traffic. It's also not recommended on most consumer grade equipment and usually does more harm than good. QoS will *NOT* make traffic any less latent under normal conditions. I would advise heavily against its use for most consumers. The double NAT thing isn't a problem in the scenario you provided. Double NAT is an issue when both DHCP servers are on the same network. In the diagram, the ISP provided equipment is only leasing a single address to the consumer router. It's better to put the ISP device into bridge mode, but stating that this scenario will cause problems isn't true unless you're attempting to port forward. The "gateway" is really a 3-in-1, Router/Switch/AP. Usually poor versions of each. The idea of having a "high performance" access point with a "low performance" access point is nonsense. I would never in a million years spend that much money on lackluster Netgear equipment. If you're serious about your network but don't want to spend a fortune look into something like Ubiquiti.

I just want to mention real quick on the part with the gateway to proper 3rd party router, if you cannot get your provider to provide you with a modem, most gateways do have a feature called "bridge mode" this feature will essentially turn your gateway into a modem and then you have no problems when connecting your 3rd party router to it.

John Glasscock the reason to use bridged mode is that you are then free to use whatever routing gear you want. It’s not going to work well if you just put the bridged connection straight into your managed switch. You should try Pfsense if you haven’t already.

I have a cable modem and connected it to a router to make it useful for more than one device. My modem is an Arris from the ISP. The connection as sold to me is 100 megabit but I often get more. That is only because I got rid of the old router which had no gigabit Ethernet and got one that does have it. I was not expecting gigabit speeds and was not really sure if I would see more than 100 megabit. To my pleasant surprise the better router allowed an extra 70 megabits to come through. Not all people will have the luck I had. I am using a TP-Link C7 router and they are usually good. Some people who reviewed them said they had problems with them but it is very difficult to know what they did to theirs, I had no problems at all!! I already had that extra boost in speed before the epidemic so that wasn't just my ISP being generous and making quarantining easier for me and other people. In a way I am glad for that extra bit of speed because they (like all the others) slowly raise your bill higher. It seems to me that the slowly rising price is more for TV service really.

I talked to the Tech and he said I could get more if I just add a router to my gateway. My question to you is it worth me buying a gaming router? Will I get more speed if I do that? It comes into my apartment as fiber then come out in a CAT 5 connection. he said also that as soon as I attach it that is disables the DCHP and give all handling to the new router? Thanks for the videos and I hope you can answer this for me.

The WiFi speed sucks, so I bought a better gaming router (Zyxel Armor Z2) and I’m able to get 400-500 mbps w/ 4-5ms ping on WiFi (with 2.4 ghz disabled and using channel 157 on 5 ghz after using WiFi analyzer to see which channels are best for me) anyways, on Ethernet connection, I’m able to get 800-900mbps w/ 2-3ms ping also after connecting to google’s DNS and doing some other stuff on Windows like changing the bandwidth limitation from 80% to 0%, etc. So my question is, you mentioned that having two routers with DCHP/NAT both enabled causes problems.

What are the best setting and best setup to achieve quality gaming without lag spikes and very high ping in the 100’s? You may not be familiar with the Velop mesh system but I’m going out on a limb here to try and find good help from someone who can point me in the right direction. My Xbox is across the home in a game room (wife won’t allow it anywhere else) and my router is next to the computer on the other side of the house this is why the mesh system was purchased. I now have a double nat all the time and a strict nat at all times. Before the mesh system I had no double nat and a moderate nat type but the router was so far away that I would lose connection 80% of the time and get kicked out of games.

Depends on your use. I have both. If you want to use the wifi extensively and if you use a lot of bandwidth (over 100mbit) use XR500, otherwise R1 will do. What you can also do with a R1 is run it along side your existing router, DMZ it and just use the geofilter. Then only connect your games console. If you don't want to use the geofilter then there is no reason to buy either as you can get better stuff for the price.

Thanks this is a very informative video. Is there any other switches you could recommend? Or maybe a popular switch that has problems with gaming QoS?

Dude in networking the only thing that helps latency and ping is to have the best solid connection to a good isp, working cat 6 cables, and only one person on the lan using the wan on a good day for the isp that hopefully takes care of its dns and mapping for its outside router directions.

You can set your ISP gateway to bridge mode, so it won't interfere with the router's capabilities.

You can, but not ever provider has this option. Also, based on experience higher speed connections suffer from loss of throughput and lower speeds when using a "bridged connection"

I have a netgear router modem set on nat type 2. But still restricted me playing with my friends. I can play with other player online but get either low connection with my friends on ps4 or I'll get disconnected. I did every setup I found online but nothing work. Example enable Dchp, disable firewall, forwarding port, and manually add and change ip address.

John, Recently, I tried to set my system up as you have but I seem to be running into a fee kinds with my Xbox One S. I use a fiber provider in Des Moines Iowa called CenturyLink. CenturyLink is a parent company associated with AT&T. CenturyLink uses a modem/router combo gateway (either Actiontec or netgear if you are extremely lucky) i have 1G speeds with fiber but usually only get on average 300 down and around 700 up. The gateway I have to use per the ISP is an Actiontec c3000a. I have logged into it and set my port forwarding and tried to change my DNS to Either a Cloudflare or OpenDNS server as that is what is recommend by Benchmark. When i plug my ethernet into my PC i get a ping of 2ms with a download of usually 200mbps and an upload of 700 to 790mbps. When i do the same test on my xbox one s i get a ping between 25ms and 52ms and a download of 80-150mbps and an upload no higher than 60mpbs with 0 to 1% packet loss. I also change the DNS of my xbox from automatic to manual and enter the DNS of the respective Cloudflare or openDNS servers to match what my gateway is using. This has little to no effect even when clearing the xbox mac address between changes (which i have read can sometimes help) Ultimately, i am trying to reduce ping in multiplayer for games such as Battlefield 5 and Cod but, i seem to have issues replicating the low ping on my computer to my xbox. From my gateway c3000A i have ports forwarded for battlefield, apex, and ghost recon games for better connectivity. I have the netgear S8000 switch with the gaming profile enabled and hardwired into my xbox. I then have my NIGHTHAWK 3200ACS in AP mode to handle all of my wifi concerns which is what I saw you do in another video. No matter what I do, I cannot seem to lower my ping or get better speeds on the xbox and I have a suspicion that even though I am changing the DNS on my gateway, my ISP isn't really allowing the change. Can you offer any suggestions on what to do from here? I dont understand how one on Microsoft based system (PC) i get one result and on another, it is completely different.

@@JohnGlasscock quick question. I mainly use LTE for all my internet stuff at home since in my country a monthly cable internet is crazy expensive like around 180$ for a 100mbps. My LTE provider offers about 8mbps to 18 mbps were i live. I usually connect by hotspot to my PC and game it's not the fastest but i can do online gaming perfectly (I don't stream games so i don't care). Do you think if i do a network bridge thus my PC works as a modem and hook my router through internet and share my internet with my family about 3 people will my connection take a hit on the main sharing PC. Btw is use LTE because it's crazy cheap 3$ per week for a 15gb data limit. So i usually stack up the plans and get 70 to 80gb per month for cheap.

How would a simple setup with precaution compare, like connecting high priority device(s) with ethernet and use it when other devices don't need internet. For latency, I believe there is a video from LinusTechTips that suggests opting for a faster dns server. Don't remember if it was supposed to improve latency for games, but should be much easier to implement.
