Sometimes when a certain guest in my house does heavy-lifting on the net, my PC and phone's speed gets real slow (On everything, starting from Google to Tomshardware).
For obvious reasons, I can't tell them anything or cut them off from the net. So, I wanted to setup QoS for my phone and PC but I'm not really experienced in this.
If you could just point out the marked parts and how I can configure it, It'd be really helpful:

With your router it is a complete waste of time. The problem is likely over utilization of the download bandwidth. Your router can only limit upload. On top of that what does "high.medium.low" really mean. Some magic words that make people feel good more than really do anything.

QoS is one of the more advanced networking topics. It really isn't something for someone with no network knowledge to try to attempt without some study on how you configure these things.

You need to get a router that can limit download bandwidth. It also must be able to limit machines to fixed values in mbps not some silly "high" setting.

i am a little fuzzy with the complete details as it has been many years since i once tried to QoS my house.

the remote ip is the destination computer server stream

to enable priority incoming data from 'remote' ip address.

the upstream needs to be as accurate as you can to your true upstream, so qos can control it fully. changing this value will only allow qos to control the stated amount
