Simple queue rule(I want priority over all)

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

Hi there,

I dont have the time right now to heavily invest in trying to understand the RouterOS stuff, however just had a simple 10/10 link installed, apart from a few devices and the odd facebook/youtube type stuff going on, my IP requires highest priority and full access to the entire pipe at all times, above every single other device. I dont need to go into mangle type rules etc for ports, I just want to ensure all my packets in/out from my LAN IP is top priority at all times. Then I want a simple secondary rule to limit total in/out for the DHCP range within the mikrotik (I have static in different subnet)

I have played around with Simple rules and I think I understand it a bit but im not sure what the queue type should be for the top WAN rule vs the clients that follow, including priority etc…

Use mangle but don’t go into ports, just work at IP level.
Queue trees will allow you to do exactly what you want to, I do similar with my home network, home network gets “full” QoS treatment and full priority access and guest lan(s) get whats left.

There isn’t a “quick simple rule” for this.
