Manage Wi-Fi Multimedia Quality of Service
Wi-Fi Multimedia Quality of Service (WMM QoS) prioritizes WiFi voice and video traffic over
the WiFi link.
WMM QoS prioritizes WiFi 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, WMM must be enabled on both the application and the client running
that application. 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 automatically enabled for the modem router. However, you can disable WMM
QoS.
To disable WMM QoS:
1.
Launch an Internet browser from a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the
network.
2.
Type
.
A login screen displays.
3.
Enter the user name and password for the modem router.
The user name is

password
. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
4.
Click the
OK
button.

Manage Implicit Beamforming
The modem router supports beamforming to enhance the WiFi range and performance for
your WiFi devices. When you enable beamforming and connect to the WiFi network, the
modem router actively tracks your device and directs WiFi to your device, rather than just
blasting it out in all directions.
The modem router uses explicit and implicit beamforming to improve WiFi performance.
Explicit beamforming requires the devices to support beamforming. (Typically, 802.11ac
devices support beamforming.) Implicit beamforming means that the modem router supports
beamforming even with devices that do not support beamforming. The modem router
supports implicit beamforming for both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz devices, which means that the
modem router can provide beamforming benefits of better range and performance for all WiFi
devices, even older 802.11a/b/g/n devices and not just the latest WiFi devices.
To enable implicit beamforming:
1.
Launch an Internet browser from a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the
network.
2.
Type
.
A login screen displays.
3.
Enter the user name and password for the modem router.
The user name is
admin
. The default password is
password
. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
4.
Click the
OK
button.
The BASIC Home screen displays.
5.
Select
ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Wireless Settings
.
The Wireless Settings screen displays.
6.
Scroll down to the very bottom of the screen.
7.
Select the
Enable Implicit BEAMFORMING
check box.
8.
Click the
Apply
button.
Your settings are saved.
