I set up QoS to manage bandwidth for my home connection and you can too

Sharing the internet connection at home with family and various devices is exhausting. I experience the struggle during team video calls while my family streams content on their devices nonchalantly. These network slowdowns or congestion will occur at certain times. That posed a question: Should I upgrade my quarter-gigabit (250Mbps) home connection or spend extra bucks on more bandwidth and an expensive router? Before making that call, I sifted through the router settings and found that I must enable the Quality of Service (QoS) since it's off by default.
