Quality of Service Priority Rules and Internet Access

You can give prioritized Internet access to the following types of traffic:

Specific applications

Specific online games

Individual Ethernet LAN ports of the modem router

A specific device by MAC address

To specify prioritization of traffic, you need to create a policy for the type of traffic and add the policy to the QoS Policy table on the QoS Setup screen. (The QoS Policy table displays only after you click the Setup QoS rule button on the QoS Setup screen.) For convenience, the QoS Policy table lists many common applications and online games that can benefit from QoS handling.

By default, QoS is disabled for Internet traffic, the default QoS rules and any custom QoS rules that you created are not activated, and no traffic is prioritized.

To enable QoS for Internet traffic and activate the QoS rules: 1. Select ADVANCED > Setup > QoS Setup.

2.Select the Turn Internet Access QoS On check box.

3.Click the Apply button. Your settings are saved.

The following sections describe how to manage and create QoS rules, which are also referred to as QoS policies.
