Download Packets and Upload Packets columns.

background packets, and the total number of uploaded background packets

Add a Device and a Service for Traffic Prioritization

prioritization. If you consider yourself an advanced user, you can add a port or port
range for traffic prioritization.
If the service, port, or port range that you add is used for high-bandwidth intensity
applications, traffic congestion might occur.
