Tried google and tried the manual and have not yet found a satisfying answer.  I have a limited amount of data from my ISP and my kids will stream all day every day if I let them, I don’t want to blacklist their devices, or even put timelimits on them I would like to throttle their data so they stream in lower quality and use less data.  I have not been able to find any sort of QoS or throttling settings in the Arris SBG10 UI.  Any Ideas?

 

Thanks!

There is something called WMM (Wireless Multimedia) that will prioritize data (voice, video, best effort and background) and you can check if that is enable by going to the wb manager interface, wireless 2,4 or 5GHz and under basic you will see the check box that says enable WMM if that’s checked. However, this is not necessarily what you are looking for but it may work to enable it or disable it otherwise I would suggest to set up some parental controls
