Prioritization: Right of Way for Internet Access
47
•
Network applications of this category always have priori-
ty over other applications accessing the Internet at the
same time.
•
When the Internet connection is working at full capacity,
the network packets of the applications of this category
will always be sent first. In this case data from network
applications assigned to other categories, like “Priori-
tized applications”, will be transmitted later.
•
If multiple network applications are assigned to this cat-
egory, then they must share the available capacity.
•
Whenever Internet telephony is included in this catego-
ry, this application always has the highest priority, even
over other real-time applications.
Prioritized Applications
This category is suitable for applications that require a fast re-
action time (for example, company access, terminal applica-
tions, games).
•
For network applications prioritized in this category,
90% of the FRITZ!Box’s upload bandwidth is available,
as long as no application from the “Real-time applica-
tions” category requires bandwidth. The remaining 10%
of the upload bandwidth is available for applications
that are prioritized in lower categories or not prioritized
at all.
•
If multiple network applications are assigned to the “Pri-
oritized applications” category, then they must share
the available capacity.
Background Applications
This category is suitable for applications that do not require
any high transmission speed and which are not time-critical
(for example, peer-to-peer services or automatic updates).
•
Network applications assigned to this category are al-
ways treated with the lowest priority when the Internet
connection is working at full capacity. So whenever an
application from a different category or a non-prioritized
