DESCRIPTION

Enable QoS

Select the check box to turn on QoS to improve your network

 

performance.

 

 

WAN Managed

Enter the amount of upstream bandwidth for the WAN interface that you

Upstream

want to allocate using QoS.

Bandwidth

The recommendation is to set this speed to match the interface’s actual

 

 

transmission speed. For example, set the WAN interface speed to

 

100000 kbps if your Internet connection has an upstream transmission

 

speed of 100 Mbps.

 

You can set this number higher than the interface’s actual transmission

 

speed. The P-2812HNU-51c uses up to 95% of the DSL port’s actual

 

upstream transmission speed even if you set this number higher than

 

the DSL port’s actual transmission speed.

 

You can also set this number lower than the interface’s actual

 

transmission speed. This will cause the P-2812HNU-51c to not use some

 

of the interface’s available bandwidth.

 

If you leave this field blank, the P-2812HNU-51c automatically sets this

 

number to be 95% of the DSL port’s actual upstream transmission

 

speed.

 

 

LAN/WLAN

Enter the amount of downstream bandwidth for the LAN/WLAN interface

Managed

that you want to allocate using QoS.

Downstream
