Hi all!
The problem:
5 Mbit Connection, 5 People and their devices. (3 gamers)
Already best ISP.
Idea:
Get a Router with QoS / that can prioritize ports and the requesting/receiving client.
I did some goggling with "dynamic bandwidth allocation", and found QoS -> Nighthawk router / tomato. But it seems to me, that they are not dynamic in the sense that they prioritize clients but not split the available bandwidth in equal parts for each client and give special applications eg skype a higher priority on a top level ( excluded from the splitting).
Am i completely off?
Question:
Is there a Router under 100 euros that has the ability to distinguish file downloads from voip/games and can additionally split the remaining traffic?
