Does anyone have any input on QOS for openvpn? I need all openvpn traffic to take priority over everything else.

I have tried defining the openvpn subnet with no success. There must be a way.

It seems with QOS on, the load of the router shoots through the roof when I start to DL stuff. Im wondering if the router just can't handle this traffic.

Just trying to get an IP phone over openvpn to get priority.

Enabled QOS, set the bandwidth limits, added the phones MAC address. Saved/Applied, then rebooted, phone is still not getting priority.

Well this is proving to be quite the pain.

Can anyone confirm that QOS actually works?

I've setup QOS on a number of hardware firewalls (pfsence, untangle) along with cisco and adtran routers with little to no fuss. This should not be that difficult.

I am now trying to QOS the traffic based off of IP. I have defined 10.80.0.0/16, 192.168.180.4/32 and 192.168.1.121/32.

192.168.1.121 - Phone DHCP IP from dd-wrt router
192.168.180.4 - dd-wrt openvpn IP
10.80.0.0/16 - Subnet of phone system on other side of openvpn tunnel

root@DD-WRT:~# cat /proc/net/ip_conntrack | grep 192.168.1.121

As you can see only one session is getting mark=10, i must be missing something or QOS is completely broke.

After more testing i finally see the QOS marking the traffic correctly. I had to define my own service/port rule.

Doesn't seem to help though as the router just dies once a download starts, which kills the voice traffic. I am guessing the WRT54G v4 just cant handle this. Hoping the e2000 will do a better job.

Is your voip traffic flowing through the openvpn tunnel?
