WISH Settings
WISH is short for Wireless Intelligent Stream Handling, a technology developed to enhance your experience of using
a wireless network by prioritizing the trafc of different applications.
Enable this option if you want to allow WISH
to prioritize your trafc.
Enable WISH:
Allows the router to recognize HTTP transfers
for many common audio and video streams
and prioritize them above other trafc. Such
streams are frequently used by digital media
players.
HTTP:
Enables the router to recognize certain
audio and video streams generated by a
Windows Media Center PC and to prioritize
these above other trafc. Such streams are
used by systems known as Windows Media
Extenders, such as the Xbox 360.
Windows Media
Center:
When enabled, this option causes the router
to automatically attempt to prioritize trafc
streams that it doesn’t otherwise recognize,
based on the behaviour that the streams
exhibit. This acts to deprioritize streams that
exhibit bulk transfer characteristics, such as
le transfers, while leaving interactive trafc,
such as gaming or VoIP, running at a normal
priority.
Automatic:
WISH Rules:
A WISH Rule identies a specic message ow and assigns a priority to that ow. For most applications, the priority
classiers ensure the right priorities and specic WISH Rules are not required.
WISH supports overlaps between rules. If more than one rule matches for a specic message ow, the rule with the highest
priority will be used.
