IV-7-2. Access Control
Access Control is a security feature that can help to prevent unauthorized
users from connecting to your wireless router.
This function allows you to define a list of wireless devices permitted or not
permitted to connect to the router, identified by their unique MAC address or
IP address. If a device which is not on the list of permitted MAC or IP
addresses attempts to connect to the travel router, it will be denied.
To enable
MAC filtering, check the box labeled “Enable Mac Filtering”.
To enable IP filtering, check the box labeled “
Enable IP Filtering
”.

IV-8. QoS (Quality of Service)
IV-8-1. QoS
Quality of service (QoS) is a function which allows you to allocate a certain
amount of bandwidth to specific computer. This can ensure that applications
which require guaranteed bandwidth e.g. video conference or network
telephone applications, are able to function properly and without interruption.
Conversely, you can also limit the maximum bandwidth available to a specific
computer or application.

Check the
“
Enable QoS
”
box to enable this function and then enter the
desired values.
Total Download Bandwidth
Set the limit of total download
bandwidth in kbits. To disable
download bandwidth limitation,
input “0”
here.
Total Upload Bandwidth
Set the limit of total upload
bandwidth in kbits. To disable upload
bandwidth limitation, in
put “0”
here.
Current QoS Table
The current QoS rule table.
When you assign a particular bandwidth guarantee/limit to a specific
computer, it is known as a rule. Existing rules will be listed in the table
“
Current QoS Table
”
.
QoS Rule settings
:
C
lick “Add” and
to create a new rule in a new window.
Page 54 / 74
54
Rule Name
Input a unique name for this QoS rule for
reference.
Bandwidth
Download/upload bandwidth (guarantee or
maximum).
Local IP Address
Set the IP address range that will be affected by
this QoS rule. If only one IP address is involved,
input the IP address in the left field only.
Local Port Range
Set the port range that will activate this QoS
rule. If only one port is involved, input a single
number here (1 to 65535); if multiple ports are
involved, input starting/ending port number in
x‐y format (
e.g.
10‐20).
Remote IP Address
Set remote IP addresses that will trigger this
QoS rule (if only one IP address is involved,
input the IP address in the left field only).
Remote Port Range
Set the remote port range that will activate this
QoS rule.
Traffic Type
If you’re creating a QoS rule for a specific type
of traffic, select it from this menu and
a port range (above) is not required.
Protocol
Select the protocol type here (TCP or UDP).

iQoS
iQoS is a more intuitive and automated tool to manage internet bandwidth
than manually configuring the settings using QoS. For online gamers, or users
with bandwidth requirements for audio/video, iQoS is useful and effective
function.
iQoS cannot be used in conjunction with QoS and vice-versa. When one is
enabled, the other is automatically disabled.
Check the box “Enable iQoS” to enable this feature. Specify the total upload
and download bandwidth and then arrange the network application icons in
priority order. Network applications are grouped into the following five
categories:
