Section 3 - Configuration
The QoS Engine option helps improve your network gaming performance by prioritizing applications. By default the QoS Engine settings are
disabled and application priority is not classified automatically.
Enable StreamEngine:
This option is disabled by default. Enable this option for better
performance and experience with online games and other
interactive applications, such as VoIP.
Dynamic Fragmentation:
This option should be enabled when you have a slow Internet
uplink. It helps to reduce the impact that large low priority
network packets can have on more urgent ones.
Automatic Uplink Speed:
This option is enabled by default when the QoS Engine option
is enabled. This option will allow your router to automatically
determine the uplink speed of your Internet connection.
Measured Uplink Speed:
This displays the detected uplink speed.
Manual Uplink Speed:
The speed at which data can be transferred from the router to
your ISP. This is determined by your ISP. ISP's often speed as a
download/upload pair. For example, 1.5Mbits/284Kbits. Using
this example, you would enter 284. Alternatively you can test your
uplink speed with a service such as www.dslreports.com.
Connection Type:
By default, the router automatically determines whether the
underlying connection is an xDSL/Frame-relay network or some
other connection type (such as cable modem or Ethernet), and
it displays the result as Detected xDSL or Frame Relay Network.
If you have an unusual network connection in which you are
actually connected via xDSL but for which you configure either
"Static" or "DHCP" in the Internet settings, setting this option
to xDSL or Other Frame Relay Network ensures that the router
will recognize that it needs to shape traffic slightly differently
in order to give the best performance. Choosing xDSL or Other
Frame Relay Network causes the measured uplink speed to be
reported slightly lower than before on such connections, but
gives much better results.
Detected xDSL:
When Connection Type is set to automatic, the automatically detected connection type is displayed here.
