Wi-Fi Multimedia (Wmm); Lan Ip Settings - NETGEAR CVG834G Reference Manual

Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM)

The Voice Gateway includes Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM), which is a Quality of Service (QoS)
feature. This feature is enabled, and the Voice Gateway uses it automatically with clients running
applications that support WMM.
WMM QoS provides prioritization of wireless data packets from different applications based on
four categories: voice, video, best effort, and background. For an application to receive the
benefits of WMM QoS, both it and the client running that application must be WMM-enabled.
Legacy applications that do not support WMM, and applications that do not require QoS, are
assigned to the best-effort category, which receives a lower priority than voice and video.
From the main menu, under the Setup heading, select Wi-Fi Multimedia. The Wi-Fi Multimedia
screen appears:

The default setting is Auto. You can change the setting to On or Off. If you make a change, click
Apply to change the settings.

LAN IP Settings

The gateway is preconfigured to use private IP addresses on the LAN side, and to act as a DHCP
server. The LAN IP settings are explained below:
• LAN IP address.This is the IP address of the gateway. The default is 192.168.0.1.
Note: If you change the LAN IP address of the gateway while connected through the
browser, you will be disconnected. You must then open a new connection to
the new IP address and log in again
• Subnet mask. This is the LAN subnet mask of the gateway. The default is 255.255.255.0.
Combined with the IP address, the subnet mask allows a device to know which other addresses
are local to it, and which must be reached through a gateway or router.
