Hello,

I want to set QoS options in order not to get lag by other wifi users while I'm playing online games but my router's interface is a little bit different and I actually don't know how to do it. Could someone help me with the router settings below on the image?

There likely is a different screen that lets you assign ip addresses to the groups also. I am going to assume that this screen is for packets already marked with those markings.

Bad news is you are wasting your time. You can with configurations like this tell your router which packets to favor over other ones. The key problem is that it can only decide what to do on packets it controls. This means traffic that is being SENT from your house to the internet. LAG and over utilization are seldom caused by your upload. It is almost always caused by over utilization of the DOWNLOAD (ie inbound) traffic coming from the ISP. This is completely in control of your ISP. Your router can do nothing if the ISP decides to drop one packet over the other...it is gone your router can not recreate it.

In theory you could control the amount of traffic between wireless session inside your house but consumer router only control traffic that passes from the LAN-WAN not lan-lan which is what wireless would be. Some high end commercial routers have some limited ability to control this.
