Use Dynamic QoS to Optimize Internet Traffic Management

Dynamic Quality of Service (QoS) helps improve your router's Internet traffic management capabilities through better
application and device identification, bandwidth allocation, and traffic prioritization techniques. Dynamic QoS resolves
traffic congestion when the Internet bandwidth is limited and different demands compete for bandwidth.
