Enable or disable airtime fairness

Airtime fairness ensures that all clients receive equal time on the network. Network
resources are divided by time, so if you have five clients, they each get one-fifth of the
network time. The advantage of this feature is that your slowest clients don't control
network responsiveness. This feature is enabled by default, but you can disable it.
To enable or disable airtime fairness:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
router network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the router admin user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time
you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The Dashboard displays.
4. Select Settings > Advanced Settings > Advanced Wireless.
The Wireless Settings page displays.
5. Scroll down below the WPS Settings section and select or clear the Enable AIRTIME
FAIRNESS check box.
Selecting this check box enables airtime fairness. Clearing this check box disables
airtime fairness.
6. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
If you connected over WiFi to the network, you are disconnected from the network
and must reconnect.

Use the Router as a WiFi Access Point Only

By default, the router functions both as a router and a WiFi access point (AP). You can
set up the router to function in AP mode and let it operate on the same local network
as another router. When the router functions in AP mode, many of its router-related
features are disabled.
