I only recently discovered GOG, and it hasn't taken me long to buy 5 Gigs worth of games...

Now not being the only one on my connection I was wanting to set up a Quality of Service (Qos) category for GOG down loader on my router.

To that end, is there a specific port or range of ports that the down loader uses, or a specific ip or range of IP#s it downloads from?

Cheers in advance,

If you have firewall you can run downloading of a game and you can look which port is presently in use. I don't know it's possible in windows firewall, but if you have any antivirus it shouldn't be a problem.

I went down a similar path, and I believe I have a solution.

I downloaded a trial of netbalancer, it showed me gog downloader was usin ports 80 and 443..... (http & https) that was obviously unusable for the QoS rule

It showed however there port 80 connection going to 93.184.221.131 and after setting that as a "bulk" ip and running a dsl speed test, the test showed me near 80% of my real adsl speed.

so basically om my linksys router flashed with dd-wrt setting a QoS netmask of 93.184.221.131/32 appears to have worked..

the question now is, is that always the ip of the downloads?
