How to set up QoS (Quality of Service)
For: Access Point and Wireless Media Connector modes only
To set up QoS:
Wireless > QoS
1.
Log into the browser-based utility (see “How to open the browser-based
utility” on page 8)
2. Click the Wireless tab, then click the QoS page
3. Configure the following settings:
WMM Support
—Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) is a wireless QoS feature that
improves quality for audio, video, and voice applications by prioritizing
wireless traffic To use WMM, the other wireless devices connected to the
WAP300N must also support WMM
No Acknowledgement
—If you do not want the WAP300N to re-send
data each time an error occurs, select
Enabled
Otherwise, keep the
default,
Disabled
How to change the IP address
You can choose whether the WAP300N gets its IP address automatically (using
the DHCP server) or manually (static IP) by setting it in the browser-based utility
NOTES
• For most home networks, we recommend leaving this setting at
Automatic Configuration - DHCP
• If there is no DHCP server, or if the WAP300N is not wirelessly
connected to any other device and it is connected with an
Ethernet cable directly to a computer, then the WAP300N uses
10.100.1.1 as its IP address until a DHCP server is detected and a
new IP address is assigned
To set your WAP300N’s IP address:
1.
Log into the browser-based utility (see “How to open the browser-based
utility” on page 8)
2. For Device IP , select Static IP , then complete the following fields:
•
IP Address
—Enter a unique IP address that will be used to access the
browser-based utility
•
Subnet Mask —Enter the subnet mask of your network
•
Default Gateway
—Enter the IP address of the default gateway for
your network (in most cases, this is your router)
3. Click Save Settings to apply your changes
