6.  In the Category drop-down list, select the type of item you want to set a 

priority for  A list of installed items fitting that description appears 

Do not set all priorities to High, because all items will have the 

same priority, and it would be easier to disable Internet Access 

Priority for the same result

Applications  and  Online  Games—Let  you  assign  a  priority  for  an 

application or online game 

a)  Select the application or online game that you want to add from 

the drop-down list, then select the priority 

b)  Click Apply, then click Save Settings  

If you want to add a new application or game, you need to know 

its port and protocol information (see the application or game’s 

documentation for help) 

 

•

MAC Address  and  Voice Device—Let  you  prioritize  network  traffic 

based on the device that is accessing the network  For example, if you 

want your gaming console to have higher priority than your computer 

for  accessing  the  Internet,  you  can  assign  a  higher  priority  to  your 

game console using its MAC address  We recommend giving any voice 

devices a high priority 

a)  Select  MAC Address  or  Voice Device  from  the  drop-down  list, 

then enter the name of the device you want to add 

b)  Enter the device’s 12-digit MAC address, then select the priority 
c)  Click Apply, then click Save Settings  

You can often find a device’s 12-digit MAC address on the bottom 

of the device  Or, if the device is connected to your network and 

turned on, you can click the Administration tab in the router’s 

browser-based utility, click the Local Network page, then click 

DHCP Client Table 

7.  Configure Upstream Bandwidth  

 

•

To allow the router to detect the maximum, select Auto (default)  Auto 

sets speeds in multiples of 512 Kbps 

 

•

To specify the maximum, select Manual, then select the bandwidth 

you want it to use 

If you specify a maximum bandwidth that is too high, the router 

cannot apply priorities correctly, and QoS problems may result 

8.  When you are done setting priorities, click Save Settings 

Why would I want to remotely change my router settings? There may be 

times when you want to change settings for remote file access while you are 

away from home  

1.  Log into the browser-based utility (see “How to open the browser-based 

utility” on page 25)  

2.  Click  the  Administration  tab,  then  click  the  Management  page  and 

locate  the  Remote  Management  Access  settings  in  the  middle  of  the 

screen  

3.  For Remote Management, select Enabled 
4.  For Access via, select HTTP (default) or select HTTPS to use SSL (Secure 

Socket Layer) to encrypt data transmitted for higher security 

5.  To be able to upgrade your router’s firmware remotely, select Enabled 

next to Remote Upgrade 

6.  To  allow  remote  access  from  anywhere  on  the  Internet,  select  Any  IP

range of allowed IP addresses 

7.  For Remote Management Port, keep the setting of 8080 (default) unless 

you already have a device on your network that uses port 8080 (such as 

a web camera)
