Prioritize Device for Internet Access
You can prioritize network devices for internet access. Prioritized de-
vices receive preferential treatment when they access the internet.
Properties and Actions Description
Highest priority • On prioritized devices, all applications
that access the internet are treated as
real-time applications.
• When the internet connection is work-
ing at full capacity, a prioritized device
receives preferential treatment.
• If multiple devices are prioritized, they
are prioritized equally.
Wireless repeaters and
powerline devices
Prioritized wireless repeaters and
powerline devices do not pass their
prioritization on to the network devices
that are connected with them. The
prioritization must be configured on the
network devices.
Adjusting prioritization Prioritized devices and all of their appli-
cations are added to the real-time appli-
cations under “Internet / Filters / Priori-
tization”. There you can configure adjust-
ments to the prioritization of the device.
Configuring prioritization Prioritization is configured in the proper-
ties window of the device (open properties
window; see page97).
