1 QoS

Quality of service provides an efficient way for computers on the network to share the

internet bandwidth with a promised quality of internet service. Without QoS, all computers

and devices on the network will compete with each other to get internet bandwidth, and

some applications which require guaranteed bandwidth (like video streaming and network

telephone) will be affected, therefore an unpleasing result will occur, like the interruption

of video / audio transfer.

With this function, you can limit the maximum bandwidth or give a guaranteed bandwidth

for a specific computer, to avoid said unpleasing result from happening.
