Enter the name of your network device in the Device name
field, enter its MAC Address, and then select its priority
from the drop-down menu.

Ethernet Port Priority

Ethernet Port Priority QoS allows you to prioritize
performance for the Router’s four ports, LAN Ports 1-4. For
each port, select the priority and flow control setting.
Priority Select High or Low in the Priority column. The
Router’s four ports have been assigned low priority by
default.
Flow Control If you want the Router to control the
transmission of data between network devices, select
Enabled. To disable this feature, select Disabled. Ethernet
Port Priority QoS does not require support from your ISP
because the prioritized por ts LAN ports 1-4 are in your
network. This feature is enabled by default.

transmitted and received. Depending on the settings of
the QoS screen, this feature will assign information a high
or low priority for the applications that you specify.

automatically allow common game application ports
to have a higher priority. These games include, but are
not limited to: Counter-Strike, Half-Life, Age of Empires,
EverQuest, Quake2/Quake3, and Diablo II. The default
setting is unselected.
Application Name Enter the name you wish to give the
application in the Application Name field.
Priority Select High or Low to assign priority to the
application. The default selection is Low.

Wireless QoS

WMM Support Wi-Fi Multimedia ( WMM), formerly
known as Wireless Multimedia Extensions (WME), is
a Wi-Fi Alliance certified feature, based on the IEEE
802.11e standard. This feature provides QoS to wireless
networks. It is especially suitable for voice, music and
video applications; for example, Voice over IP (VoIP), video
streaming, and interactive gaming. If you have other
devices on your wireless network that support WMM,
select Enabled. Otherwise, keep the default, Disabled.
No Acknowledgement This feature prevents the Router
from re-sending data if an error occurs. To use this feature,
select Enabled. Otherwise, keep the default setting,
Disabled.
