Description

Wi-Fi Multi-media (WMM) Settings

WMM (Wireless Multimedia) is a subset of the 802.11e standard.

WMM allows wireless traffic to have a range of priorities depending

on the kind of data. Time-dependent information, such as video or

audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic. For WMM to function

correctly, wireless clients must also support WMM.

Turn Internet Access QoS On

If you enable QoS, the QoS function works to prioritize Internet

access traffic. For the applications that already exist in the

drop-down list (e.g., On-line Gaming, Ethernet LAN Port, or a

specified MAC address), you can modify the priority level by clicking

the

Edit

button, or clicking the

Delete

button to erase the priority

rule. Otherwise, you can also define the priority policy for online

gaming, an application, a LAN port, or the computer's MAC address

by clicking the

Add Priority Rule

button.

Bandwidth Control

To set up the total maximum uplink bandwidth, click the

Check

button to detect current uplink bandwidth that will help you to

determinate the maximum bandwidth setting.
