Nighthawk Pro Gaming routers are able to prioritize traffic for online games however some game manufacturers encrypt their traffic and as result, this prevents those games from having their traffic properly prioritized. To utilize Traffic Prioritization for the League of Legends (LoL) game you will need to manually add the rules instead of using ‘DumaOS Classified Games’ or a preset LoL service.
The League of Legends game uses the following ports:
5000 – 5500 UDP (League of Legends Game Client)
8393 – 8400 TCP (Patcher and Maestro)
2099 TCP ()
5222 – 5223 TCP ()
80 TCP (HTTP Connections)
443 TCP (HTTPS Connections)
8088 UDP and TCP (Spectator Mode)
To add these ports to Traffic Prioritization please follow the instructions below:
In the address field of your browser, type Login using your admin username and password.
Go to QoS Page.
Scroll down to Traffic Prioritization
Click ‘Add Device’ and select the PC you want to prioritize League of Legends on then click ‘Next’
Click ‘Advanced’ at the top of the box
(For this tutorial do not change any source ports, we will only be changing the destination ports and protocol. )
Then under Destination Port enter the following:
Start – 5000
End – 5500
Then select UDP from the dropdown list and click done.
The port has successfully been added to Traffic Prioritization and will be prioritized on that PC.
Repeat steps 3-6 for the remaining ports in the list.

Not really but it depends how you look at it. If you do not set the port forwarding rules the ping will be timeout.
The port forwarding is simply a port translation. The router in effect edits that packet but it is so fast you can not measure it. Ping times in a proper functioning network is pretty much a measure of distance based on the speed of light. Of course the fiber does not go directly and there is overhead as it passes through routers but primarily it is a distance thing.

No, port forwarding is for inbound connections. Game pings are outbound traffic.
#3
Ok, so does port forwarding decrease the time of getting an inbound connection?
#5
So if i fully understand you… the longer the distance the better results from port forwarding will be(even though they are hardly measurable)?
#6
No port forwarding is a fixed amount of overhead. It is based on cpu clock speed. It is likely. 001ms or less.
The distance is your ping time it does not matter if you have port forwarding on or not.
