Category
Select one of these categories: Applications, Online
Games, MAC Address, Ethernet Port, or Voice Device.
Then proceed to the instructions below for your selection.
For each category, you can set the bandwidth priority to
one of four levels: High, Medium, Normal, or Low. Be
careful not to set all your applications to High priority,
as this will defeat the purpose of allocating the available
bandwidth. For below-normal bandwidth, select Low.
Depending on the application, a few attempts may be
needed to set the appropriate bandwidth priority.
