I am not a networking expert so I am in over my head a bit on this topic. I have Backblaze running on my home system, and I want to use the QoS in my Trendnet AC1750 router to give the Backblaze bandwidth lower priority than most other traffic. What has me stumped is what Backblaze says their IP's are and how to input that information into the Trendnet router.
Backblaze lists their IP's on the following webpage:
https://help.backblaze.com/entries/20202037-what-ip-addresses-does-backblaze-use
I have a shaky understanding of "subnet notation", but from what I can tell, saying 208.87.220.0 /24 is another way of saying the range 208.87.220.0 - 208.87.220.255. Hopefully I have that correct.
Next, I'm trying to input the IP's listed on that webpage into my Trendnet AC1750 router's QoS settings, and set it at "low" priority class. However, from what I can tell, I can only specify a single IP address per QoS entry. In other words, it won't let me say either "208.87.220.0 /24" or "208.87.220.0 - 208.87.220.255", and will only accept something like "208.87.220.0".
Am I doing something wrong, or is the QoS of my router just that limited in capability?
