Configuration Page
This is the page where you can change the basic settings of the Access Point with the
minimum amount of effort to adjust a secure wireless network.
SSID: Service Set Identifier, which is a unique name shared among all clients and
nodes in a wireless network. The SSID must be identical for each clients and nodes in
the wireless network.
BSS Type: There are two types available for selection
Infrastructure – to establish wireless communication with LAN and other
l
wireless clients through the use the Access Points.
Ad-Hoc – to establish point-to-point wireless communication directly with
l
other wireless client devices such as wireless network PCI Adapter.
Channel: The value of channel that AP will operate in. You can select the channel
range of 1 to 11 for North America (FCC) domain, 1 to 13 for European (ETSI) domain
and 1 to 14 for Japanese domain.
Tx Rate: Select the data rate for data transmission.
Preamble: Select Long or Short Preamble type. Preamble is a sequence of bits
transmitted at 1Mbps that allows the PHY circuitry to reach steady-state demodulation
and synchronization of bit clock and frame start. Two different preambles and headers
are defined: the mandatory supported Long Preamble and header, which interoperates
with the 1 Mbit/s and 2 Mbit/s DSSS specification (as described in IEEE Std 802.11),
and an optional Short Preamble and header (as described in IEEE Std 802.11b). At the
receiver, the Preamble and header are processed to aid in demodulation and delivery of
