These settings are advanced options that can be configured to change advanced
wireless broadcast specifications. It is recommended that these settings remain set to
their default values unless you are knowledgeable about the effects of changing these
values. Changing these settings incorrectly can degrade performance.
•
Transmit Power: This setting allows you to adjust the wireless transmit power
to a lower setting. In busy wireless environments, lowering the transmit power
may improve better performance and connectivity and decrease interference
with neighboring wireless networks.
• Beacon Period: A beacon is a management frame used in wireless networks
that transmitted periodically to announce the presence and provide
information about the router's wireless network. The interval is the amount
time between each beacon transmission.
Default Value: 100 milliseconds (range: 20-1000)
•
Preamble Type: Select the option that works best for your installation. It may
be best to keep this option at its default setting.
Short Preamble - Using a short guard interval can increase
o
throughput. However, it can also increase error rate in some
installations, due to increased sensitivity to radio-frequency
reflections.
Long Preamble – Using a long preamble can help to decrease the error
o
rate in wireless data transmission and receiving.
