Use Dynamic Qos To Prioritize Bandwidth; Enable Dynamic Qos - NETGEAR R8000 Nighthawk X6 AC3200 User Manual

Use Dynamic QoS to Prioritize Bandwidth

Dynamic Quality of Service (QoS) prioritizes your WiFi bandwidth by application and device.
If your Internet bandwidth is limited, Dynamic QoS resolves Internet traffic congestion by
using better application and device identification, bandwidth allocation, and traffic
prioritization techniques.
If you like gaming and streaming videos, you can benefit from enabling Dynamic QoS.
Note: If you use a gigabit Internet connection, or your Internet download and
upload speed is 300 Mbps or faster, you don't need to use Dynamic
QoS.
