Wireless-G Router for Mobile Broadband

Ethernet Port Priority

Port 1-4, Priority, and Flow Control. Ethernet Port Priority QoS allows you to prioritize performance for four of the Router’s ports, Ethernet (LAN) Ports 1-4. For each of these ports, select High or Low for Priority. For Flow Control, if you want the Router to control the transmission of data between network devices, select Enable. To disable this feature, select Disable.

Ethernet Port Priority QoS does not require support from your ISP because the prioritized ports are LAN ports going out to your network.

Application Priority

Application Priority QoS manages information as it is transmitted and received. You can have gaming application ports assigned higher priority. You can also configure the Router to assign high or low priority to ports for applications that you specify.

Optimize Gaming Applications. Click this checkbox if you want the Router to automatically assign higher priority to common game application ports.

Application Name, Priority, and Specific Port #. Enter the name of the application in the Application Name field. For each application, select High or Low for Priority and enter its respective port number in the Specific Port# fields.

Wireless QoS

You can configure the WMM™ (Wi-Fi Multimedia) support and No Acknowledgement settings in this section.

WMM Support. If you have other devices that support WMM on your network, select Enable from the drop-down menu. Otherwise, keep the default, Disable.

No Acknowledgement. If you want to disable the Router’s Acknowledgement feature, so the Router will not re- send data if an error occurs, then select Enable from the drop-down menu. Otherwise, keep the default, Disable.

Change these settings as described here, and click the Save Settings button to apply your changes or Cancel
