DESCRIPTION
Set the output power of the device in this field. If there is a high density of APs
within an area, decrease the output power of the device to reduce interference with
other APs.
The options are Full, 50%, 25%, 12% and Min.
Use this field to select a maximum data rate for the wireless connection(s). Please
note that this is a total rate to be shared by all of the device's wireless connections.
Preamble is used to signal that data is coming to the receiver.
Short preamble increases performance as less time sending preamble means
more time for sending data. All IEEE 802.11b compliant wireless adapters support
long preamble, but not all support short preamble.
Select Long preamble if you are unsure what preamble mode the wireless
adapters support, and to provide more reliable communications in busy wireless
networks.
Select Short preamble if you are sure the wireless adapters support it, and to
provide more efficient communications.
Select Auto to have the device automatically use short preamble when all wireless
clients support it, otherwise the device uses long preamble.
Note: The device and the wireless stations MUST use the same
preamble mode in order to communicate.
Super-G mode provides higher speed transmissions than regular IEEE 802.11g.
The other device must also support super-G mode in order for the device to use it
for the wireless connection. This is available when you select a Wireless Mode
that includes IEEE 802.11g.
Turbo-G mode provides higher speed transmissions than regular IEEE 802.11g or
super-G mode. The other device must also support turbo-G mode in order to use it
for the wireless connection. This is available when you select a Wireless Mode
that includes IEEE 802.11g.
Turbo-G uses two channels bonded together in order to achieve its higher
transmission rates. This may cause interference with other APs in the area. The
Channel field is automatically fixed at 6 when you use turbo-G mode.
Enter a value between 0 and 2432. The default is 2432.
Enter a value between 256 and 2432. The default is 2432. It is the maximum data
fragment size that can be sent.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the device.
Click Reset to begin configuring this screen afresh.
