WiFi 6 AX1800 Dual Band Wireless Access Point WAX204 For information about bandwidth utilization by device and application, see Display the devices currently on the access point network and change device information on page 154. Enable QoS and manually set the Internet bandwidth If you enable QoS, we recommend that you use the automatic method to set the Internet download and upload speed for the access point (see Enable QoS and automatically set the Internet bandwidth on page 100). However, you can also manually set the Internet bandwidth. Note the following about manual configuration: • Do not set the bandwidth higher than the actual bandwidth because it causes dynamic QoS to become ineffective. • If you set the bandwidth lower than the actual bandwidth, the access point underutilizes the available bandwidth. To enable QoS and manually set the Internet download and upload bandwidth: 1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the access point network. 2. Enter http//www.routerlogin.net in the address field. If you are not connected to the access point network but to the same network as the access point, enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point. If you do not know the IP address, see Find the IP address of the access point when you cannot use routerlogin.net on page 27. A login window displays. If your browser does not display the login window but displays a security message and does not let you proceed, see Log in to the access point after initial setup on page 30. 3. Enter the access point local device password. The local device password is the one that you specified. The local device password is case-sensitive. The BASIC Home page displays. 4. Select BASIC > Quality of Service. Optimize Performance 101 User Manual
