WiFi Multimedia

WiFi Multimedia is an advanced feature that allows you to prioritize various types of data travelling over
the wireless network. Cer tain types of data that are sensitive to delays, such as voice or video, must be
prioritized ahead of other, less delay-sensitive types, such as email.

WiFi Multimedia currently implements wireless Quality of Ser vice (QoS) by transmitting data depending
on Diffser v priority settings. These priorities are mapped into four Access Categories (AC), in increasing
order of priority:

❑ Background (BK),
❑ Best Effort (BE),
❑ Video (VI), and
❑ Voice (VO).

It requires WiFi Multimedia (WMM)-capable clients, usually a separate feature enabled at the client net-
work settings, and client PC software that makes use of Differentiated Ser vices (Diffser v). Refer to
your operating system instructions for enabling Diffser v QoS.

When you click the

WiFi Multimedia

button the

WiFi Multimedia page appears.

To enable the WiFi Multimedia custom settings, select

Diffserv from the pull-down menu.
