3.3 Using the Traffic Manager

3.3.1 Managing QoS (Quality of Service) Bandwidth

The Quality of Service (QoS) allows you to set the bandwidth

priority and manage network traffic.

NOTES:

• The default rule sets online gaming and web surfing as the highest

priority and are not influenced by P2P applications (peer-to-peer

applications such as Bit Torrent).

• If QoS is turned off, the P2P (peer-to-peer) applications will be given

the top priority to use the upload and download bandwidths. If a

P2P application is used, you may encounter some lag during web

surfing.

To set up bandwidth priority:
1. From the navigation panel, go to General > Traffic Manager >

QoS tab.

2. Click ON to enable QoS. Fill in the upload and download

bandwidth fields.

NOTE: Get the bandwidth information from your ISP.

3. Click Save.

NOTE: The table on the screen below is for advanced settings. If you

want to prioritize specific network applications and network services,

select User-defined QoS rules or User-defined Priority from the drop-

down list on the upper-right corner.
