Section 3 - 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 audio and video
Center:
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 behavior 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.
