DESCRIPTION
This section controls the data rates permitted for clients.
For each Rate, select an option from the Configuration list. The options are:
•
Basic (1~11 Mbps only): Clients can always connect to the access point at
this speed.
•
Optional: Clients can connect to the access point at this speed, when
permitted to do so by the AP.
•
Disable: Clients cannot connect to the access point at this speed.
The MCS Rate table is available only when 802.11 b/g/n is selected in the
802.11 Wireless Mode field.
IEEE 802.11n supports many different data rates which are called MCS rates. MCS
stands for Modulation and Coding Scheme. This is an 802.11n feature that
increases the wireless network performance in terms of throughput.
For each MCS Rate (0-15), select either Enable (default) to have the NWA use the
data rate. Select Disable if you do not want the NWA to use the data rate.
Click Apply to save your changes.
