Configure Your Notebook
Note: We use the ZyXEL M-302 wireless adapter utility screens as an example for the
wireless client. The screens may vary for different models.
1
The NBG4604 supports IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11n wireless
clients. Make sure that your notebook or computer’s wireless adapter supports
one of these standards.
2
Wireless adapters come with software sometimes called a “utility” that you install
on your computer. See your wireless adapter’s User’s Guide for information on
how to do that.
3
After you’ve installed the utility, open it. If you cannot see your utility’s icon on
your screen, go to
Start > Programs
and click on your utility in the list of
programs that appears. The utility displays a list of APs within range, as shown in
the example screen below.

Bandwidth Management for your Network
This section shows you how to configure the bandwidth management feature on
the NBG4604 to limit the bandwidth for specific kinds of outgoing traffic. ZyXEL's
bandwidth management feature allows you to specify bandwidth management
rules based on an application or subnet.
Use the
Management > Bandwidth MGMT > Advanced
screen to configure
bandwidth management for your network.
5.3.1
Configuring Bandwidth Management by Application
For this example, your company’s customer support department wants to
prioritize VoIP, e-mail and MSN Messenger services.
In the
Priority Queue
table, VoIP and e-mail services are already pre-defined.
However, you still need to add MSN Messenger in the list (refer to
Section 5.3.2 on
page 65
).

In the following screen, you set the priorities for VoIP and e-mail.
Figure 39
Tutorial: Priority Queue
Click
Enable
for the
VoIP (SIP)
service and set priority to
High
. Do the same for
E-mail
. For the rest of the applications, click
Enable
if you need these services
and set the priority to
Low
.
Note: You can also leave the
Enable
field blank for the rest of the applications. In
doing so, the NBG4604 does not apply bandwidth management to these
services.
5.3.2
Configuring Bandwidth Management by Custom
Application
Aside from the VOIP and e-mail services, you need to set the priority for MSN
Messenger. To do this, add the service in the
Priority Queue
table of the
Management > Bandwidth MGMT > Advanced
screen.
