Quality of Service
QoS prioritizes and guarantees network performance for a specific application for an IP Address range or MAC
Address. You can also enter only an IP address or MAC address without selecting an application if you wish to
prioritize all traffic for a specific device.

prioritize all traffic for a specific device.
QoS is often used for applications that require steady bandwidth. Common applications include VoIP phones,
video streaming applications (i.e. DVRs, network cameras, video on demand), online gaming and servers.

It is important to note that while QoS helps to prioritize and guarantee bandwidth for a specific device or
application, it does not provide you with more bandwidth than you currently have.
application, it does not provide you with more bandwidth than you currently have.
For example, if your Internet Provider rates your internet connection speed at 5Mbps, QoS will not improve
that connection. QoS helps you better manage the 5Mbps that you have so that the bandwidth is prioritized
for devices on your network that may need the provided 5Mbps more than other devices. However, if you
have an application that requires more than 5Mbps of steady bandwidth, the application will continue to
experience “lag” with or without QoS since your available bandwidth is less than the required bandwidth of
your application.
