Description
QoS for WiFi Multimedia (WMM)
Determines whether the Gateway enables or disables Quality of Service for Wi-Fi Multimedia. Choices
are:
•
Enabled = enable QoS for WMM.
•
Disabled = disable QoS for WMM.
QoS for LAN
Determines whether the Gateway enables or disables Quality of Service for the local-area network
(LAN). Choices are:
•
Enabled = enable QoS for LAN.
•
Disabled = disable QoS for LAN.

Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is an architecture that allows for dynamic connectivity between devices
on a network. The goal of UPnP is to support zero-configuration, "invisible" networking of devices
including intelligent appliances, PCs, printers and other smart devices using standard protocols.
Using UPnP, devices can add themselves to a network dynamically, without requiring user intervention
or configuration. An UPnP-enabled device can obtain an IP address, advertise its capabilities, learn
about other connected UPnP devices, and then communicate directly with those devices. The same
device can end its connection cleanly when it wishes to leave the UPnP community.
Using the Device Discovery page, you can configure the Gateway to discover UPnP-enabled devices
on the network.

Description
Enable UPnP
Determines whether the Gateway’s UPnP capabilities are enabled or disabled. Choices are:
•
Enabled = enable the Gateway’s UPnP capabilities.
•
Disabled = disable the Gateway’s UPnP capabilities.
Advertisement Period
Specify how often, in seconds, the Gateway broadcasts its UPnP information. This value can
range from 1 to 2147483648 seconds. Short durations ensure that control points have current
device status at the expense of additional network traffic. Long durations can compromise the
freshness of the device status, but can significantly reduce network traffic.
Time To Live
Time to live for the advertisement is measured in hops (steps) for each UPnP packet sent. The
time to live hop count is the number of steps a broadcast packet is allowed to propagate for
each UPnP advertisement before it disappears. The number of hops can range from 1 to 255.
The default value of 4 hops should be fine for most home networks. If some devices are not
being updated or reached correctly, increase this value slightly.

There may be times when you encounter a problem trying to reach a certain destination. If you examine
the Gateway’s configuration and operation and everything looks fine, the problem might be with a router
up the line from the Gateway or with the line itself.
To help you identify such issues, use the Network Diagnostic Tools page to test connectivity to a
destination or IP address.
