BANDWIDTH CONTROL

It is possible to control the amount of bandwidth allocated by each of the wireless network
names (SSID's) on the Bright Box router. This feature is useful if you want to control the
maximum upload and download speeds on a particular SSID – for example you may like to
limit the connection speed of a member of your family who uses SSID2 to 1000kbps (about
1mbps) on download and 512kbps on upload.
This setting is often used in conjunction with multiple SSID's. See how to setup multiple
SSID's on page 102 for further information.
As Bandwidth Control is a Quality of Service (QoS) feature, you must also enable the 'QoS
Module Function' in the Advanced Set-Up > QoS page for the Bandwidth Control to be
applied.
To access the Bandwidth Control page:
1. Login to the router's admin pages.
2. Click on the Advanced Set-Up tab and click Accept on the 'Please proceed with
caution' page.
3. Click on Wireless Settings in the left hand navigation menu to expand the Wireless
Settings menu.
4. Click Bandwidth Control in the left hand navigation menu:
