ShoreTel/Mitel QoS on Nighthawk router

I am planning on getting a Nighthawk gaming router for my home soon. I also work from home and use ShoreTel/Mitel. It looks like the QoS feature picks up applications for you to set priorities. Does the QoS feature pick up ShoreTel/Mitel? Iwould really like to know before I purchase a router.

Thank you!

    Hi Brash - with our QoS you can either give more bandwidth to specific devices, so in this case your ShorTel device, or if you want a lesser known application, you can also prioritise ports using Traffic Prioritization.

    So to answer quickly, yes you can prioritise it!

    Gaming features dont have to be used on the router but QoS works fine. XR500 QoS is very granular and works very well, as you can change upload and download for each device seperately on your network.
