QoS Engine
Under Connected Clients, you will see client cards representing each device. If some
client cards are o-screen, you can use the < and > buttons to scroll left and right.
A maximum of one device can be assigned Highest priority.
A maximum of two devices can be assigned High priority.
A maximum of eight devices can be assigned Medium priority.
If connected clients are not assigned a priority, all devices will be treated with equal
priority. If some devices are assigned a priority and others are not, the unassigned
devices will be treated with the lowest priority.
Quality of Service (QoS) improves data ow. It allows you to prioritize clients, so that high-priority clients receive higher bandwidth. For example, if
one client is streaming a movie and another is downloading a non-urgent le, you might wish to assign the former client a higher priority, so that
the movie streaming is not disrupted by the trac of the other devices on the network.
From the Features menu on the bar on the top of the page, click QoS Engine.
To assign a priority level to a device, drag the device card from the Connected Clients
list over an empty slot and release the mouse button. The card will remain in the
slot. If you want to remove a priority assignment from a device and return it to the
Connected Clients list, click the cross icon in the top right corner of the device card.
Click Save when you are done.
