Allocating VoIP connections the optimum bandwidth
You can find the optimum setting for
Upstream Rate
by carrying out tests while making a
phone call during a data upload.
First, in the
Upstream Rate
field enter the upload stream rate given by your Internet provider.
Then proceed as follows:
¤
Make a phone call while you upload data.
¤
If the voice quality is already good: increase the value in the
Upstream Rate
field step by
step, provided that the voice quality is still good. This means that you won't "give away"
any bandwidth.
If the voice quality is poor: reduce the value in the
Upstream Rate
field step by step until
the voice quality is good.
Setting Routing
You can enter static routings in the table. The routing establishes which path the data pack-
ets should follow to reach a specific target in your network. This means, for example, that
you can allow users from various IP domains to access the Internet via your router.

Example: Your router does not have a direct connection to the Internet, but requests to a
server on the Internet are forwarded via another local network. Your router is connected to
this network via another router (=gateway). In your router's routing table, you have to
enter the IP address of the server on the Internet for
Destination Network
, and the private
address of the other router within your local network for
Gateway
.
Routing Table
The routing table displays all the rules used in your router for forwarding data packets
within your local network.
