AC1600 WiFi Cable Modem Router
Keep Existing Wireless Settings. By default, the Keep Existing Wireless Settings
check boxes are selected for the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.
NETGEAR recommends that you leave these check boxes selected. However, when
these check boxes are selected, some applications might not detect the modem
router.
CAUTION:
When you clear a Keep Existing Wireless Settings check box and you
add a new WiFi client through WPS, the modem router’s WiFi settings for
the associated network change to an automatically generated SSID and
passphrase (also referred to as the WiFi network password or network
key).
8. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
Manage the Advanced WiFi Features
The modem router supports the following advanced WiFi features:
WMM. Wi-Fi Multimedia Quality of Service (WMM QoS) prioritizes WiFi voice and video
traffic over the WiFi link.
WMM QoS prioritizes WiFi data packets from different applications based on four access
categories: voice, video, best effort, and background. For an application to receive the
benefits of WMM QoS, WMM must be enabled on both the application and the client
running that application. Legacy applications that do not support WMM and applications
that do not require QoS are assigned to the best effort category, which receives a lower
priority than voice and video. This feature is enabled by default, but you can disable it.
PMF. Protected Management Frames (PMF) is a security feature that protects unicast
and multicast management frames from being intercepted and changed for malicious
purposes. This feature is disabled by default, but you can enable it.
PMF is supported in Windows 8. If all computers on your network run Windows 8, you can
enable PMF. If you are not sure, keep PMF disabled.
WMF. Wireless Multicast Forwarding (WMF) lets the modem router forward multicast
frames to wireless LAN (WLAN) hosts, using unicast addresses. WMF provides robust
wireless communication because unicast frames are acknowledged, retried, and
dynamically rate-controlled. This feature is enabled by default, but you can disable it.
ATF. Airtime Fairness (ATF) ensures that all WiFi clients receive equal time on the
network. Network resources are divided by time, so if five WiFi clients are connected to
the network, they each get one-fifth of the network time. The advantage of this feature is
that the slowest WiFi clients do not control network responsiveness. This feature is
disabled by default, but you can enable it.
