When I stream this dream because everyone is using a lot of bandwidth, I was wondering if there was some way to use like qos to give my computer priority so the Stream wouldn't drop out as much.

My Router is the Netgear R6220

If this is possible I would love to know how to do it

Thanks

maybe, hard to say without reading the manual.

I will assume you mean you transmit a video stream...ie you are not for example "watching" netflix.

You have a much better chance of getting QoS setting to fix that issue. This would be a overload of your UPLOAD bandwidth. Depending on the router you should be able to set it to match your traffic and prefer it over other traffic. How exactly depends greatly on the router. Still even the crappy high/medium/low method will likely help on unload. You match you IP and set it to higher priority than all the other traffic. The better QoS you can actually reserve a fixed amount of bandwidth.

Now if your issue is overload of the download bandwidth that is much harder to fix because...

Now if your issue is overload of the download bandwidth that is much harder to fix because really the ISP is in full control. Any QoS setting on your router is really a attempt to trick the other device in your house into requesting less. It is not truly QoS but if your router can limit traffic to fixed amount on download you can partially make it work.
