How to configureQoS?

• Set my phone with intermediate speed on the Internet.
Step 1
Open a web browser, and in the address bar type in http://tplinkwifi.net or http://192.168.0.1, and log in with the username and password you set for the router. The default username and password both are admin (in lower case).
Step 2
Go to Advanced > QoS > Settings. Select the Enable QoS checkbox.

Input the maximum upload and download bandwidth provided by your service provider. 1Mbps is equal to 1024Kbps.
Click Advanced and drag the scroll bar to set the bandwidth priority percentage. Then click on Save.
