Automatic Uplink speed, which is determined by your ISP, is
the data transfer rate from the router to your ISP. This option
is enabled by default when the Enable QoS Engine option is
checked. If you wish to limit your uplink speed, uncheck the
Automatic Uplink Speed checkbox. This will allow you to enter
the uplink speed manually where it says Manual Uplink Speed, or
select a rate from the drop-down menu that says Select
Transmission Rate.
Displays the uplink speed measured when the WAN interface
was last re-established.
If the Measured Uplink Speed produces suboptimal performance,
disable Automatic Uplink Speed and enter the Manual Uplink
Speed. Experimentation and performance testing will result in
discovery of the optimal value.
A QoS Engine Rule identies a specic message ow and
assigns a priority to that ow. For most applications, automatic classication will be adequate, and specic QoS Engine Rules will
not be required.
Enter a name for the rule that is meaningful to you.
Enter a number between one and 255 to set a priority of the message ow. (One is the highest priority and 255 is the lowest priority.)
This is the protocol used by the messages. Select Any, TCP, UDP, Both, ICMP or Other.
