video, best effort, and background. For an application to receive the benefits of WMM QoS,
both it and the client running that application have to have WMM enabled. Legacy
applications that do not support WMM and applications that do not require QoS, are
assigned to the best effort category, which receives a lower priority than voice and video.

WMM QoS is enabled by default. You can disable it in the QoS Setup screen by clearing the
Enable WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) settings

check box and clicking Apply.

Set Up QoS for 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, create a policy for the type of traffic and add the policy to the
QoS Policy table in the QoS Setup screen. For convenience, the QoS Policy table lists many
common applications and online games that can benefit from QoS handling.

QoS for Applications and Online Gaming

To create a QoS policy for applications and online games:

1.

In the QoS Setup screen, select the Turn Internet Access QoS On check box.

2.

Click the Setup QoS Rule button to see the existing priority rules.
