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. In some circumstances you might want to disable WMM.
To manage WMM QoS:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the network.
2.
Enter
.
A login window opens.
3.
Enter the modem router user name and password.
The user name is

check box.
To enable WMM QoS for the 2.4 GHz radio, select the
Enable WMM (Wi-Fi multimedia) settings (2.4GHz

check box.
By default, WMM QoS is enabled for the 2.4 GHz radio.
To disable WMM QoS for the 5 GHz radio, clear the
Enable WMM (Wi-Fi multimedia) settings (5GHz
802.11a/n/ac)
check box.
To enable WMM QoS for the 5 GHz radio, select the
Enable WMM (Wi-Fi multimedia) settings (5GHz
