My internet is throttling like fuck and I can't even watch youtube half the time now. My dumbfuck roommates are constantly streaming and gaming or some shit. I logged into my router's settings, but I can't find any way to set a max bandwidth or internet speed on people's connections. It's a Belkin. Before my new roomate came in, I was able to watch HD videos consistently. Now I can barely even shitpost half the time. Please save me from this hell! HOW DO I THROTTLE MY PAJEET ROOMMATE'S WIFI???

look up QoS in your router.

Give the exact make and model if you want more help.

hide ssid

change ssid

tell roommate it’s broke and you can’t buy a new router

This. You won't be limiting their bandwith, but all of your packets will have the highest priority.

Fuck, my router doesn't have this, or it's disabled in firmware. Belkin n300.

>>817369

not an option.


 No.817376>>817378

You won't be getting qos on a shitty belkin. Buy your own router as a repeater with qos, hide the ssid broadcast of the first, give the new one the original ssid/password. No one will ever know but you will control their packets.

Sorry, I assumed you had your own room. If you sleep on the floor of a room with several other illegal immigrants, I don't think there is help for you. Maybe learn not to be selfish animals and share the internet on a time schedule.

Why should it be risky? If you follow correctly the instructions you won't brick it for sure.

Stop talking about it and put the alternate firmware on your router. You learn by doing, if you stand around dithering you'll never gain mastery over your technology.


 No.817606>>817680

>>817367 (OP)

Wi-fi is shit and prone to retransmissions causing excessive jitter. You should connect via wires. Stock router QoS a shit. You need router CFW. Learn 2 tc, htb, and fq_codel (protip: tc's syntax sucks).


 No.817680

This, it could just be wifi interference. Ethernet might solve your problem. Go be a good autist and run the cable to your room.


 No.818067

>>817377

firewall the streaming service.

Simple as a fuck..

otherwise get a better antenna than your roommate.

Think about how wifi works, and that moving some centimeters might improve your signal.

Did anon flash the router or not?


 No.818166>>818633

>>817367 (OP)

The thing is normies usually have 10 devices constantly connected because they are too stupid to turn off the wifi on their iphones and ipads when they are not using it, so it's likely that they are simply exhausting the wifi capacity of your router rather than your bandwidth. When I used to have this problem with roommates I simply filtered the MAC addresses of all mobile devices.

This is the only question that matters, because until he does it, no progress will be made with QoS.

>pajeet

he's killing your wifi with his phone

on linux do some anti arp measures. I doubt it works on windows.

try the

arp
command on linux and restrict your connection to the router's MAC only. just search the command. poisoning happens when other wifi users tell your MAC that "site is unavailable".

Get a rooted android device and wifikill him back.

Pajeets are well known for their rooted android and "le hacker" attitude.

Route cable through existing conduits (power, phone, A/C) or just drill a hole and route cable along ceiling or baseboard. I've even routed it through attic once.


 No.819181

wireless anything is a terrible idea for anything interactive and streaming.

I wish wi-fi wasn't a thing, so people would actually bother wiring their homes with network cable instead of relying on shit-fi though niggers would probably use CCA.

>>818639

>being so pleb you don't lay your own wiring and conduit, and dedicated wall outlets

>>819105

electrical wiring + data wiring (shielded or not) = bad

you need separate conduit. I think fiber is not affected, though.
