Why would you cripple your connection when prioritising outgoing ACKs is a much more elegant solution?

That is not a solution for one person downloading preventing another gaming at the same time.

I think it is.

I disagree.

If the OP sees increased latency when downloading (which is normal, though I don't know how big the buffer is on a sky ADSL connection) that's nothing to do with upstream, as upstream is not flooded anyway for this specific test, so any upstream QOS in place isn't active.

Doing upstream QOS is needed of course, and priorotising empty acks above bulk is normal - but game traffic should get a higher prio than both.

A lot of ISP provided routers (not Sky though) have WWM on their routers

What do you base this on? A wireless router without WMM wouldn't last 5 minutes in the wild.

LoL, now you are talking the language of mordor (aka I dont understand anything xD)

Thanks, I've found the options on the steam, battlenet and other clients, so the problem is partially solved

The only problem now, is when any of the stupid phones start an update or even my own windows update... but I think that I can survive

I apologised earlier, it supports WMM but as far as I know no QOS.

I guess you haven't tried it.

Tried what?

The other problem (even bigger) is that when I'm downloading something, the internet speed of the whole house just works horribel (i cannot even use google on my phone or my laptop if I start a download)

This isn't normal, for a regular download to cripple things - maybe check again. It is a very different case to p2p downloads.
