WMM
Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM), is a subset of the
802.11e wireless LAN (WLAN) specification that
enhances quality of service (QoS) on a network by
prioritizing data packets.
Note
802.11n spec requires devices to
support 802.11e (Quality of Service
[QoS] enhancements for wireless LAN)
in order to use HT (High Throughput)
link rates, i.e. higher than 54 Mbps.
WMM's Traffic Identifier (TID) field is
key to aggregation mechanisms,
including
block
acknowledgement
(block ACK), that enable 802.11n's
high throughput rates.
Since WMM support is required for products to be
certified for 802.11n, WMM comes enabled by
default in all Wi-Fi Certified n APs and wireless
routers. So even if you don't have any WMM-
aware devices on your network, leave WMM
enabled or you may find your clients connecting
only at 54 Mbps rates.
