I am sharing an internet connection with a friend who streams a lot of netflix. When he is streaming, my connection becomes so slow that it is almost unusable. I want to set up QoS to effectively split the connection so that only half the bandwidth goes to his computers. My computer is connected through wireless to a WRT54G router which is connected with a cable to a Zyxel PK5000Z which is the router and modem for the DSL connection. His 2 computers are connected to the Zyxel router.
The settings on the WRT54G are DHCP:ON, no static routes (role is Gateway), QoS off. The Cat5 cable is connected to the "internet" port, and wirelessly to my computer. IP of router is 192.168.5.1.
I have messed with the QoS settings on the Zyxel to bump priority of 192.168.0.5 (IP of the WRT54G router on the zyxel ntetwork) but it did not seem to help.
As I just typed this out, I realized I have two separate networks and that is probably why the QoS settings are not working?
