WR850
Configuration settings are available to individually adjust EDCA
parameters for WR850 transmissions (EDCA AP parameters)
and for client device transmissions (EDCA Client parameters).
You can set, left to right for each Access Category, the following
EDCA parameters:
•
a minimum CW (in slots)
•
a maximum CW (in slots)
•
the AISFN (in slots)
•
a TXOP Limit (b) for 11Mbps 802.11b operation
(in microseconds)
•
a separate TXOP Limit (a/g) for 54Mbps 802.11g
operation, since more capacity is available
(in microseconds)
[this last field references 802.11a as well, per WMM standards,
since 802.11a is also a 54Mbps wireless technology]
You can selectively enable and disable specific EDCA parameter
settings, on an AC by AC basis, by selecting On or Off in the
Admin Forced dialog box at the end of each row.

FACTORY DEFAULTS:
(to extend an existing wireless network)
In a typical wireless network configuration, the WR850 serves as
wireless access point for clients. However, using built-in
Wireless Distribution System (WDS) functionality, the WR850 can
be used as a wireless bridge, specifically communicating with
other bridges (and/or access points) to create a larger network.
