Figure 8. Downstream QoS assigns high priority to video streaming from the Internet
NETGEAR recommends that you enable downstream QoS only if you watch streaming
Internet video. When downstream QoS assigns a high priority to streaming video, it also
assigns lower priority to the rest of your Internet traffic. That means other tasks like
downloading content from the Internet take longer.
 To enable downstream QoS:
1. Launch an Internet browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
network.
2. T
ype http://www.routerlogin.net or http://www.routerlogin.com.
A login screen displays.
3. Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin.
The default password is password. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
