QoS
Quality of Service (QoS) provides different priority to different users or data flows. It can also guarantee a certain level of
performance.
OPTION
DEFINITION
QoS
Use the drop down list to Enable or Disable QoS.
WAN Interface
Use the drop down list to select the interface to which QoS should apply.
QoS Mode
Use the drop down list to select the type of QoS to apply. Smart-QoS lets the router devide on the best settings based
on the types of service you select below and the percentage setting assigned to each type of service. Higher
percentages give a higher quality of service for that service type.
Bandwidth of Upstream
Enter the upstream bandwidth in Kilobits per second of your connection so that the router can calculate the best QoS
settings.
Bandwidth of Downstream
Enter the downstream bandwidth in Kilobits per second of your connection so that the router can calculate the best
QoS settings.
The lower section of the screen lets you manually assign a percentage of bandwidth to the different service types. If you manually
assign QoS, the total percentage must add up to 90%. The remaining 10% of bandwidth is reserved for other types of network
traffic.
For advanced QoS configuration, use the QoS Mode drop down list to select User-defined QoS Rule to display the QoS rules
table. Click the Add A New Rule button to configure a new QoS rule.
