Simple question about QoS

eclipse79oldacct
Hello, 
I have a simple question about QoS. I have a 2mbit "guaranteed" optic fiber internet connection, so it is symmetric. In QoS I have set:

Total available uplink bandwidth: 2048 kbits/sec
Total available downlink bandwidth: 2048 kbits/sec

In the dashboard I see 1.9mbit as top speed (well, in the report of WAN interface I see 1.99mbit). In your opinion this little difference from 1.99 and 2.0 could make QoS not working properly? I don't know how exactly QoS works, but in my mind if I set a bandwidth that cannot be reached from ASG, perhaps it cannot manage correctly the allocation of bandwidth. In this case, could I have some benefits reducing the maximum bandwidth from 2048 to... (i.e.) 2000kbit/sec? 

Thanks

    FWIW, I usually try some speedtests and then set my QOS available bandwidth to the result of the best consistent speedtest.
    However, if you're on an ISP which doesn't give consistent speeds, it doesn't always work out.
