Please use Bandwidth Management to make the bandwidth usage more efficient. Available settings are explained as follows: Item Description SSID Display the specific SSID name. Enable Check this box to enable the bandwidth management for clients.
3.7.10 Airtime Fairness Airtime fairness is essential in wireless networks that must support critical enterprise applications. Most of the applications are either symmetric or require more downlink than uplink capacity; telephony and email send the same amount of data in each direction, while video streaming and web surfing involve more traffic sent from access points to clients than the other way around. This is essential for ensuring predictable performance and quality-of-service, as well as allowing 802.
It is similar to automatic Bandwidth Limit. The dynamic bandwidth limit of each station depends on instant active station number and airtime assignment. Please note that Airtime Fairness of 2.4GHz and 5GHz are independent. But stations of different SSIDs function together, because they all use the same wireless channel. IN SPECIFIC ENVIRONMENTS, this function can reduce the bad influence of slow wireless devices and improve the overall wireless performance. Suitable environment: (1) Many wireless stations.
Note: Airtime Fairness function and Bandwidth Limit function should be mutually exclusive. So their webs have extra actions to ensure these two functions are not enabled simultaneously. 3.7.11 Station Control Station Control is used to specify the duration for the wireless client to connect and reconnect VigorAP. If such function is not enabled, the wireless client can connect VigorAP until it shuts down. Such feature is especially useful for free Wi-Fi service.
