Advanced (Infrastructure) Parameters
Description
Specifies the antenna that your client adapter uses to transmit data..
• PC card – The PC card's integrated, permanently attached antenna
operates best when used in Antennas 1 and 2 mode (also referred
to as diversity mode). Diversity mode allows the card to use the
better signal from its two antenna ports.
Range: Antenna 1 Only, Antenna 2 Only, Antennas 1 and 2
Default: Antennas 1 and 2
LM card – The LM card is shipped without an antenna; however,
•
an antenna can be connected through the card's external
connector. If a snap-on antenna is used, diversity mode is
recommended. Otherwise, select the mode that corresponds to the
antenna port to which the antenna is connected.
Range: Antenna 1 Only, Antenna 2 Only, Antennas 1 and 2
Default: Antennas 1 and 2
PCI client adapter – The PCI client adapter must use the Antenna
•
1 Only option.
Default: Antenna 1 Only
Specifies the antenna that your client adapter uses to receive data. See
the Transmit Antenna Mode parameter above for information on the
options available for your client adapter.
Specifies the MAC addresses of up to four preferred access points to
which you want to associate. If the specified access points are not
found or you roam out of range, you may associate to another access
point.
You can enter the MAC addresses of the access points in the edit boxes
or choose not to specify access points by leaving the boxes blank.
Default: No access points specified
Note
Chapter 5
This parameter should be used only for access points that
are in repeater mode. For normal operation, these fields
should be left blank because specifying an access point
slows down the roaming process.
