6.8 WiPipe QoS
When WiPipe QoS (Quality of Service/Traffic Shaping) is enabled, the router will control the flow of Internet traffic according to the user- defined rules. In other words, Traffic Shaping improves performance by allowing the user to prioritize applications.
Enable WiPipe QoS: Click on this box to open options for controlling Internet traffic. You can control Uplink Speed values or define your own Traffic Shaping rules. When WiPipe QoS is enabled, the router restricts the flow of outbound traffic so as not to exceed the WAN uplink bandwidth.
Uplink Speed: By default, the Uplink Speed
values are set as fast as possible. Adjust the sliding bar to restrict the maximum uplink speed for the Internet source(s) you are using. You might do this to prioritize available bandwidth for download or to reduce overall bandwidth use in order to lower costs. It is recommended that you experiment with different values for your particular Internet connection for best results.
NOTE: Uplink speed is the speed at which data can be transferred to your ISP. You can test your uplink speed with a service such as speedtest.net.
6.8.1Add Traffic Shaping Rule
A Traffic Shaping Rule identifies a specific message flow and assigns a priority to that flow. For most applications, automatic classification will be adequate, and specific Traffic Shaping Rules will not be required.
Traffic Shaping supports overlap between rules, where more than one rule can match for a specific message flow. If more than one rule matches, the rule with the highest priority will be used.
