I have to computers at my house, sharing a ZXHN h2080n router.
Here is my speedtest result.
First problem
Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 frustrate me incredibly.
I live in Bosnia and apparently that forces me to play only on German and British servers, I can't even play on Russian and Swedish ones.
In every other game I just play on any server, or rather when I play Bad Company 2 or use Game Ranger, there I always have good ping. And I play with anyone from anywhere.
Second problem.
If anyone sits on the other PC I get immediately lag on BF4/BF3. I even ask the person to not open hd youtube or many pages at once, but to avail. I can constantly check what the person is using but I'm pretty sure it's Facebook and 360p youtube at worst, and yet it butchers my connection. What makes me more confused is that when I personally play youtube 360p clips it doesn't affect my gameplay on bf games.
Third problem.
This is how I understand "connection". There is a certain amount of data that can be transferred at a certain speed. My two computers are sharing this data but it seems to me that Battlefield games just have :"low priority", if anyone is doing anything on the other computers browser it draws all the connection and gives the left overs to battlefield. I even tried this application net Balancer, and gave everything low priorities on both PC"s except Battlefields, Origin and the browser that starts BF. Nothing, it's either useless or I don't know how to use it.
A friend of mine told me to use something called "QoS" on my router, and I looked it up but:
I have no idea what to do.
So my question is this.
How can give a game 1st priority when it comes to internet connection, that everything else has to take a step behind the line. If not, can I at least give it to the "gaming" pc?
