N300 Wireless Gigabit Router with USB JNR3210

Quality of Service (QoS) Setup

QoS is an advanced feature that can be used to prioritize some types of traffic ahead of

others. The N300 Wireless Gigabit Router with USB can provide QoS prioritization over the

wireless link and on the Internet connection. To configure QoS, use the QoS Setup screen.

Select Advanc

ed > Setup > QoS Setup to display the following screen:

Enable WMM QoS for Wireless Multimedia Applications

The N300 Wireless Gigabit Router with USB supports Wi-Fi Multimedia Quality of Service

(WMM QoS) to prioritize wireless voice and video traffic over the wireless link. WMM QoS

provides prioritization of wireless data packets from different applications based on four

access categories: voice, video, best effort, and background. For an application to receive

the benefits of WMM QoS, both it and the client running that application have to have WMM

enabled. Legacy applications that do not support WMM and applications that do not require

QoS, are assigned to the best effort category, which receives a lower priority than voice and

video.

WMM QoS is enabled by default. You can disable it in the QoS Setup screen by clearing the

Enable WMM chec

k box and clicking Apply.
