Quality of Service
The Linksys Broadband Router with 2 Phone Ports also maintains an effective Quality of Service (QoS) application.
QoS preserves speech/audio quality by reserving a portion of the available broadband speed for the Voice application. QoS will constrict the available bandwidth avialble for non VoIP (audio) data to upload out to the internet through the Linksys RT31P2-NA. Once enabled, this QoS feature occurs only when a VoIP call is active via the Linksys RT31P2-NA.
Following is a simple method for enabling voice QoS on the Linksys RT31P2-NA:
- From the main menu bar at the top of the RT31P2 screen, click on the Applications & Gaming button.
- In the Applications and Gaming Menu, select QoS on the far right.
- In the Voice QoS section at the bottom of the screen click the Enable radio button.
- Select either Auto Detect or Manual radio buttons. If Manual is selected, then a pre-determined amount of bandwidth to be reserved must be input to the adjacent parameter field.
- Click Save Settings at the bottom of the page. The page will return in 8 seconds.
