Please can someone help me with the correct setup to give specific ports priority over the entire network

Here is a good article to start learning QoS.

thank you for the link i will go threw it and see what i learn. I also configured the following: http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/how-i-can-give-priority-on-port-base-in-mikrotik/52552/1 but it doesn’t seem to have any effect. will these steps be enough to achieve what i want to do or is there something ells i also need to do?

Which steps did you try? There are a few different variations in that topic.

sorry it took me so long to reply, i used the following:

  1. /ip firewall mangle add chain=prerouting protocol=tcp port=5000 connection-state=new action=mark-connection new-connection-mark=prio_conn
  2. /ip firewall mangle add chain=prerouting connection-mark=prio_conn action=mark-packet new-packet-mark=prio
  3. /queue simple add name=Internet interface=WAN max-limit=4M/4M
  4. /queue simple add name=prio interface=WAN parent=Internet packet-marks=prio priority=8 max-limit=4M/4M limit-at=2M/2M
  5. /queue simple add name=other interface=WAN parent=Internet priority=1

So then:
Step 1: port 5000 gets up to 2M of guaranteed traffic (if it wants more - it gets 2M for now, if it wants - let’s say - 1M, it gets 1M)
Step 2: the other traffic gets the rest of the bandwidth available to 4M (4M minus what was used earlier by port 5000)
Step 3: if there is still a free bandwidth after step 2, port 5000 gets the rest :slight_smile:
