WNHDE111 5GHz Wireless-N HD Access Point/Bridge User Manual Using WMM QoS for Wireless Multimedia Applications The Wireless-N AccessPoint/Bridge supports Wi-Fi Multimedia Quality of Service (WMM QoS) to prioritize wireless voice and video traffic over the wireless link. WMM QoS provides prioritization of wireless data packets from different applications based on four access categories: voice, video, best effort, and background. For an application to receive the benefits of WMM QoS, both it and the client running that application must be WMM enabled. Legacy applications that do not support WMM, and applications that do not require QoS, are assigned to the best effort category, which receives a lower priority than voice and video. WMM QoS is disabled by default. You can enable it in the Advanced Wireless screen by checking the Enable WMM check box and clicking Apply. Fine-Tuning Your Network 6-5 v1.1, May 2008

Using WMM QoS for Wireless Multimedia Applications
The Wireless-N AccessPoint/Bridge supports Wi-Fi Multimedia Quality of Service (WMM QoS)
to prioritize wireless voice and video traffic over the wireless link. WMM QoS provides
prioritization of wireless data packets from different applications based on four access categories:
voice, video, best effort, and background. For an application to receive the benefits of WMM QoS,
both it and the client running that application must be WMM enabled. Legacy applications that do
not support WMM, and applications that do not require QoS, are assigned to the best effort
category, which receives a lower priority than voice and video.
WMM QoS is disabled by default. You can enable it in the Advanced Wireless screen by checking
