Abstract: A network resource allocating method for a residential gateway includes the following steps. A first downlink bandwidth is allocated to a residential gateway for process of a first service. A second downlink bandwidth is allocated to the residential gateway for process of a second service. A processing priority of the first service is higher than a processing priority of the second service. A first downlink rate of the residential gateway is detected when the residential gateway processes the first service. A second downlink rate of the residential gateway is detected when the residential gateway processes the second service. A bandwidth usage state of the residential gateway is determined according to the first and the second downlink rates. The second downlink bandwidth of the residential gateway is adjusted according to the bandwidth usage state such that the quality of service (QoS) of the first service or the second service is enhanced.

Abstract: A bandwidth control method is provided. A router is provided to establish a network connection to a remote apparatus. The remote apparatus is allocated with a downlink bandwidth for servicing the gateway. A plurality of downlink packets are received by the gateway. In response to reception of the downlink packets, the gateway transmits a plurality of uplink packets to the remote apparatus to allow the remote apparatus to transmit more downlink packets to the gateway after the remote apparatus acknowledges reception of the uplink packets. A transmission rate of the uplink packets is limited within an uplink threshold by the gateway so that a transmission rate of the downlink packets is smaller than the downlink bandwidth allocated to the remote apparatus. The uplink threshold is determined based on the downlink bandwidth.
