Google Photos upload taking up all bandwidth
Does your internet stop when you start uploading Google Photos? When I googled the problem, all they said was there was nothing to do about it. I googled some more and realized that I could go to the router and change the Bandwidth settings. The router number is usually accessed through http://192.168.1.1. This is for a Netgear router. The username is usually admin, with a blank password or the password of "password". Go to the advanced tab, and find the QoS setup. Adjust the Bandwidth (uplink bandwidth maximum). I read that they suggested 75% of the typical upload speed. I have an upload of 1GB, so set my uplink bandwidth to 750 Kbps. Worked perfectly. Hope this can help someone!
