Section  - Configuration
WISH is short for Wireless Intelligent Stream Handling, a technology developed to enhance your experience of using
a wireless network by prioritizing the traffic of different applications.
Enable WISH:
Enable this option if you want to allow WISH to
prioritize your traffic.
HTTP:
Allows the router to recognize HTTP transfers
for many common audio and video streams
and prioritize them above other traffic. Such
streams are frequently used by digital media
players.
Windows Media
Enables the router to recognize certain
Center:
audio and video streams generated by a
Windows Media Center PC and to prioritize
these above other traffic. Such streams are
used by systems known as Windows Media
Extenders, such as the Xbox 360.
Automatic:
When enabled, this option causes the router
to automatically attempt to prioritize traffic
streams that it doesn't otherwise recognize,
based on the behaviour that the streams
exhibit. This acts to deprioritize streams
that exhibit bulk transfer characteristics,
such as file transfers, while leaving
interactive traffic, such as gaming or VoIP,
running at a normal priority.
WISH Rules:
A WISH Rule identifies a specific message flow and assigns a priority to that flow. For most applications, the priority
classifiers ensure the right priorities and specific WISH Rules are not required.
WISH supports overlaps between rules. If more than one rule matches for a specific message flow, the rule with the highest
priority will be used.
