Re: Airport Extreme QOS/Packet Prioritization?

said by mbernste:

Does anyone know if the Airport Extreme has support for QOS and/or packet prioritization?
Is this a VoIP or ULA related question?

No it isn't. I just wondered if it had support for it like many of the Linksys routers do. My current Belkin has support, so I was just wondering if the Airport Extreme does.

So you don't actually need it... just curious?

I have a UMA BlackBerry (that doesn't work with the Airport because of the lack of WMM/QoS).

Well, the person who wanted to get it will probably have a lot of wireless traffic of different types and the Linksys he was looking at (forget which model at the moment) had support for it. He has a mixed environment of Vista, Xbox, OS X, and in brief moments of lunacy, Linux. He will be doing things ranging from VoIP and MP3 streaming to online databases and video chats which all could be occurring at the same time on different platforms. In this environment he felt it might've been best to have some kind of prioritization going on. No one likes to get fragged in Halo because someone else is making a Skype call.

So it's for a friend? Consider an outboard QoS product... »www.hawkingtech.com/products/pro···odID=216

Well, he's probably going to be getting Time Capsule so that decision has been pretty much made up for him. I suppose that if it becomes an issue he could look into that. Thanks for the suggestion!

The product I mentioned would work great with a Time Capsule... it doesn't matter.
