Note that VLAN ID in the WDS MAC List setting will only be tagged to egress packets on the wired Ethernet port. Ensure to 
match VLAN ID used on the network of the peer. WDS link won’t carry tags at all. 

 

 

WMM: 

By default, it’s “

Disable

Select “Enable”, then packets with WMM QoS will take higher priority. 

WMM  prioritizes  traffic  according  to  four  Access  Categories  (AC)  -  voice,  video,  best  effort,  and 

background.  However,  it  does  not  provide  guaranteed  throughput.  Packets  with  QOS  header  including 

Diffserv/IP TOS and 802.1p will be mapped into 4 Access Categories of WMM, packets without QOS header 

will be assigned to Best Effort queue, see table below. 802.1p/IP TOS mapping to WMM:
