QoS (Quality of Service)

Wireless

You can configure the support and No Acknowledgement settings in this section.

WMM Support  If you have other devices that support WiFi Multimedia (WMM) on your network, keep the default, Enabled. Otherwise, select Disabled.

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 Enabled. Otherwise, keep the default, 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 have set, keep the default, Enabled. Otherwise, select Disabled.

Category

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