Stop Traffic Prioritization for a Device

automatic traffic prioritization is enabled (which it is by default) and the router detects high-priority traffic to
or from the device, the router still prioritizes that traffic. However, other traffic to or from the device is no
longer prioritized.

Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.

Enter the router admin user name and password.
