QoS          

                                                                                          

 

Wireless

Immediate ACK  This is for normal wireless networking. This is the default setting.

Burst ACK  This is not as reliable as Immediate ACK, but provides faster wireless networking.

No ACK  This is normally used in a multicast broadcast like video. Do not use this unless you know what you are doing.

802.11e/QoS  QoS is enabled by default to provide the best performance for your wireless connection. Select Disable to improve performance for a mixed wireless network.

Internet Access Priority

Set Internet Bandwidth  Sets the upstream speed limit.  Application  You can select None, Add a New Application, or Voice Device  or choose from the list of applications. Selecting Online games  will display the Select a Game drop-down, which lists a few common pre-confgured games you can select. Otherwise, select Add a New Application to create a new entry. For further information on  Add a New Application, please go to that section.

Priority  Select the bandwidth priority for the application -  High, Medium, Normal or Low . Avoid setting all applications to High, because this will defeat the purpose of allocating the available bandwidth. If you want to select lower-than-normal bandwidth, choose Low.  Depending on the application, you may need to try a number of different settings before you find the right setup.

Once you have made your selection, click Add to add to the Summary list.

Add a New Application

Enter a Name  Enter any name to identify the entry.

Category  Select the category on which priority should be based. The options available are Port Range or MAC address. This is critical for the router to determine what category requires bandwidth priority.

Port Range  This category allows you to enter the port range the application will be using.  For example, if you want to allocate bandwidth for FTP, you can enter 21-21. If you need services for an application that uses ports 1000 to 1250, enter 1000-1250 . You can define up to three ranges for bandwidth allocation. Port numbers can range from 1 to 65535. Check your application's user guide for details on the service ports used.

MAC Address   Enter a 12-digit hexadecimal number to represent the device you want to set bandwidth  priority.  This is a unique identifier for your network device. When the router identifies the device entered, the router will allocate the priority set for that entry. Check the user guide of the device to find the MAC Address.
