Configuring Quality of Service
Quality of Service (QoS) helps guarantee upstream bandwidth for
applications that require fast and dependable throughput. For
example, QoS can slow down a photo upload so a phone call can
proceed without garbling, and/or a gamer can enjoy faster
response time.
With QoS you can assign VoIP, each of the four ETHERNET
ports, and the Wireless port a priority of High, Medium, or
Standard. High priority ports together share a guaranteed
percentage of upstream bandwidth, typically 70%. Medium priority
ports share a lower guaranteed percentage, typically 20%. Standard
priority ports share the remaining upstream bandwidth that is
guaranteed to them. If ports aren’t using their guaranteed
bandwidth, the excess bandwidth becomes available to other ports
in order of priority.
For VoIP, you normally assign a High Priority QoS port. For a
game console, you may want to assign a High or Medium priority.
For ports used for Web browsing, normally you use Standard
priority.
Windows users normally set up QoS by using the
Install Assistant
CD that comes with the X6v. To configure Quality of Service using
Router Setup instead, click

on the
