DMZ

Any PC whose port is being forwarded must have its DHCP client function disabled and should have a new static IP address assigned to it because its IP address may change when using the DHCP function.

To allow PCs on the Internet to access a local PC, select Enabled. Then, select Any IP Address or manually enter a specific source IP address. Then, enter your local PC’s IP address or MAC address that you want to allow access to. This feature is disabled by default.

QoS (Quality of Service)

Wireless

Wireless WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia)  WMM is a wireless Quality of Service feature that improves quality for audio, video, and voice applications by prioritizing wireless traffic. To use this feature, your wireless client devices in your network must support Wireless WMM. If you would like to disable this feature, select Disabled. Otherwise, keep the default, Enabled.

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 keep the default, Enabled. Otherwise, select Disabled.

Internet Access Priority

In this section, you can set the bandwidth priority for a variety of applications and devices. There are four levels priority: High, Medium, Normal, or Low. When you set priority, do not set all applications to High, because this will defeat the purpose of allocating the available bandwidth. If you want to select below normal bandwidth, select Low. Depending on the application, a few attempts may be needed to set the appropriate bandwidth priority.

Enabled/Disabled  To use the QoS policies you set, select Enabled. Otherwise, select Disabled.

Category

There are four categories available. Select one of the following: Applications, Online Games, MAC Address, Ethernet Port, or Voice Device. Proceed to the instructions for your selection.

Applications

Applications  Select the appropriate application. If you select Add a New Application, follow the Add a New Application instructions.

Priority  Select the appropriate priority: High, Medium, Normal, or Low.

Click Add to save your changes. Your new entry will appear in the Summary list.
