Section 3 - Configuration QoS Engine Quality of Service (QoS) assigns priority to specified applications, providing better performance of a data flow. The QoS Engine option helps improve your online gaming experience by prioritizing your game traffic over other network traffic, like FTP. The Classification Rules can be used to classify traffic to different queues, then the Strict Priority Queue (SPQ) or Weighted Fair Queue (WFQ) will do the QoS based on the queue's priority or weight. Enable QoS: This option is disabled by default. Check the box to Enable this option for providing better performance with online games and other interactive applications, such as VoIP. Uplink Speed: The speed at which data can be transferred from the router to your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Downlink The speed at which data can be transferred from the Internet to Speed: your router. This is determined by your ISP. Queue Type: Select either Strict Priority Queue (based on traffic priority) or Weighted Fair Queue (based on queue weight, by percentage). Queue ID: The Queue ID that is used will be shown in the first column. Queue Priority: When Strict Priority Queue is selected, the Queue Priority will be displayed in the second column. Queue Weight: When Weighted Fair Queue is selected, you can manually enter the Queue Weight in the second column for each Queue ID. Classification The QoS Engine supports overlaps between rules, where more Rules: than one rule can match for a specific message flow. If more than one rule is found to match, the rule with the highest priority will be used. Name: Create a Name for the rule that is meaningful to you. D-Link DIR-818LW User Manual 75
