Optimize Internet Streaming with QoS
You can use Quality of Service (QoS) to assign high priority to Internet streaming,
applications, and services.
Figure 5. QoS can assign high priority to streaming from the Internet
NETGEAR recommends that you enable this feature only if you use streaming Internet.
When QoS assigns a high priority to streaming video, it also assigns lower priority to the rest
of your Internet traffic. That means other tasks like downloading content from the Internet
take longer.
To turn on Internet access QoS:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
network.
2. In the address field of the web browser, enter http://www.routerlogin.net or
http://www.routerlogin.com.
A login screen displays.
3. Enter the router 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 ADVANCED > Setup > QoS Setup.
The QoS Setup screen displays.
