For the first link I'm not sure what the types mean, those were already on there, so when I make a new queue what does type mean? and how do I setup the first page shown in the first link?

for the second link:

For SrcMacAddr, I'm guessing it's just the MAC address for the device so no problem there, for the rest of them I'm not sure, I tried putting in 255.255.255.0 for Destmask and SrcMask but it said it was invaild characters.

For protocol which one would I want to use, and for DSCP it has a range of 0-63 which is better a higher or lower number?

You might get a answer if you had a particular question. QoS is one of the most advanced networking topics there is. You must know understand a lot of basic networking topics like subnet masks, port numbers as well as theories like queue sizes and burst rates.

The one key thing that shows you have a long way to go is your question on DSCP. The biggest thing here is knowing that these packet markings mean absolutely nothing for internet connections. Even if you were to send them to a ISP they remove any packet markings. They are used in enterprise networks and what they mean is unique to every company...they actually by default mean nothing in commercial routers.

What is really strange is you find this on many consumer routers...

What is really strange is you find this on many consumer routers even though the feature has no purpose and consumer routers like this are never used internally in a corporate network. It is mostly a marketing trick to sell to try to confuse people with lots of flashy tech to get them to think it is complex so it must be important so I need to buy it.

Now you can work at learning but you must be aware that QoS really can only affect traffic you SEND..ie upload...to the internet. Most people have trouble with the download side and that you have very little control. What can any device possibly do if your connection to your house is full and the ISP decides to discard some video conference data and sends some data for a windows patch instead. Your router can not magically recreate the video conference data and discard the other. The ISP does not care unless you pay them to care and then you might get them to have some form of QoS on one of their routers.
