you turn on this feature, some applications might not perform as well as usual.
To enable upstream QoS:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
Smart Cradle.
2. In the address field of the browser
, enter http://netgear.cradle or http://192.168.100.1.
A login prompt displays.
3. Enter the cradle user name and password.
The user name is admin.
The default password is password. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home screen displays.
4. Select ADV
ANCED > Setup > QoS Setup.
