4.6 Quality of Service (QoS)
Quality of service provides an efficient way for computers on the network to share the
internet bandwidth with a promised quality of internet service. Without QoS, all computers
and devices on the network will compete with each other to get internet bandwidth, and
some applications which require guaranteed bandwidth (like video streaming and network
telephone) will be affected, therefore an unpleasing result will occur, like the interruption of
video / audio transfer.
With this function, you can limit the maximum bandwidth or give a guaranteed bandwidth
for a specific computer, to avoid said unpleasing result from happening.
