    Hi,

    I have a few questions about setting up QOS in order to prioritize voip and video chats using a router that has tomato firmware.

    1) My connection is 50/10. What do I type for Max Bandwidth Limit in the kbit/s (Set to measured bandwidth less 15-30%) setting? I think 50mbit = 50,000 kbit/s but I'm not sure.

    2) These are the QOS categories:

    Service

    VOIP/Game

    Media

    Remote

    WWW

    Mail

    Messenger

    FileXfer

    P2P/Bulk

    Crawl

    Do I need to prioritize VOIP/Game, Messenger & Media in order to prioritize voip & video chats through Facebook messenger & FaceTime?

    3) When I prioritize each category, does the total percentage I select for each have to add up to 100% when I add them all up? For example:

    VOIP/GAME - 50%

    Media - 30%

    Messenger = 10%

    Crawl - 10%

    Or does the percentage for each category determine the percentage of the bandwidth that will be given to that specific category when it's being used?

    Thanks.
