5.  On the 

User-defined Priority

 page, you can prioritize the 

network applications or devices into five levels from the 

user-

defined QoS rules

’ dropdown list. Based on priority level, you 

can use the following methods to send data packets:

•  Change the order of upstream network packets that are sent 

to the Internet.

•  Under 

Upload Bandwidth

 table, set 

Minimum Reserved 

Bandwidth

 and 

Maximum Bandwidth Limit

 for multiple 

network applications with different priority levels. The 

percentages indicate the upload bandwidth rates that are 

available for specified network applications. 

NOTES:

•  Low-priority packets are disregarded to ensure the transmission of 

high-priority packets. 

•  Under 

Download Bandwidth

 table, set 

Maximum Bandwidth 

Limit

 for multiple network applications in corresponding order. 

The higher priority upstream packet will cause the higher priority 

downstream packet.

•  If there are no packets being sent from high-priority applications, the 

full transmission rate of the Internet connection is available for low-

priority packets.

6.  Set the highest priority packet. To ensure a smooth online 

gaming experience, you can set ACK, SYN, and ICMP as the 

highest priority packet. 

NOTE:  

Ensure to enable QoS first and set up the upload and download 

rate limits.
