QoS, unless done by your ISP, will not affect you. QoS will delegate bandwidth to your devices based on their priority. Here are some tips, make sure you have an open NAT, turn on UPnP, and don't open any ports. Contrary to what Bungie has put in their networking tips, only thing opening ports will do is open you up to DoS or DDoS attacks. As long as UPnP is enabled it will handle opening the ports for you. And if it is absolutely necessary to configure your ports use port triggering, and not forwarding. It's much more secure, and has the same effect.

    Then how come my connections in online games have become very smooth after enabling QoS? I'll give UPnP a try then. COD Modern Warfare was literally unplayable prior to QoS being enabled, but after enabling it, packet loss and latency issues were 100% gone. Same goes to Destiny 2, I get the first 2 "Connecting to Destiny 2 Servers" when I boot up the game, but after getting into orbit, no more network issues. Also, I got UPnP, but my router settings has no additional settings for it other than enabling/disabling UPnP
