N600 Wireless Dual Band Router JNDR3000

Quality of Service (QoS) Setup

QoS is an advanced feature that can be used to prioritize some types of traffic ahead of

others. The router can provide QoS prioritization over the wireless link and on the Internet

connection.

WMM QoS for Wireless Multimedia Applications

The router supports Wi-Fi Multimedia Quality of Service (WMM QoS) to prioritize wireless

voice and video traffic over the wireless link. WMM QoS provides prioritization of wireless

data packets from different applications based on four access categories: voice, video, best

effort, and background. For an application to receive the benefits of WMM QoS, both it and

the client running that application have to have WMM enabled. Legacy applications that do

not support WMM and applications that do not require QoS are assigned to the best effort

category, which receives a lower priority than voice and video. WMM QoS is enabled by

default.

 To disable WMM QoS:

1. Select ADV

ANCED > Setup > QoS.

The following screen displays:

2. Clear the Enable WMM (Wi-Fi multimedia) settings (2.4GHz b/g/n) and Enable WMM

(Wi-Fi multimedia) settings (5GHz a/n) check boxes.
