5 GHz SSIDs. For each 5 GHz SSID, you can shape the traffic by limiting the bandwidth
for downloading traffic and the bandwidth for uploading traffic.
You can configure traffic shaping for an AirBridge that functions as an access point. You
can do the same for a master with the AirBridge mode disabled. In a configuration in
which a single 5 GHz SSID is available, you cannot configure traffic shaping.
To configure traffic shaping for a 5 GHz SSID:
1.
Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the
AirBridge or directly to the AirBridge through an Ethernet cable or WiFi connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the AirBridge.
The login page displays.
If your browser does not display the login page but displays a security message and
does not let you proceed, see Log in to the AirBridge after initial setup on page 34.
3. Enter the AirBridge user name and local device password.
The user name is admin. The local device password is the one that you specified
the first time that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
If you previously managed the AirBridge through the NETGEAR Insight app or Insight
Cloud portal, enter the Insight network password for the Insight network location to
which the AirBridge was assigned (see Connect over WiFi using the NETGEAR Insight
app on an iOS or Android mobile device on page 15).
The Device Status page displays the Device Information section and other sections.
4. Under Network, select Wireless.
The Wireless Settings page displays.
5.
In either the Wireless Settings - Access Point section or, if the AirBridge mode is
disabled on a master, the Wireless Settings - 5GHz section, click the Edit button for
the 5 GHz SSID.
A new page opens.
6.
Scroll down to the Wireless Traffic Shaping section.
7. Select the Status Enable radio button.
By default, the Status Disable radio button is selected and traffic shaping is disabled.
8.
In the Download Limit field, enter the limit in Mbps.
You can enter a limit from 1 to 999 Mbps. If you enable traffic shaping, do not enter 0.
Otherwise downloading traffic is disabled entirely.
9.
In the Upload Limit field, enter the limit in Mbps.
You can enter a limit from 1 to 999 Mbps. If you enable traffic shaping, do not enter 0.
Otherwise uploading traffic is disabled entirely.
