Advanced - Comtrend Corporation CT-5361T User Manual

7.5 Advanced

The Advanced screen allows you to configure advanced features of the wireless LAN
interface. You can select a particular channel on which to operate, force the
transmission rate to a particular speed, set the fragmentation threshold, set the RTS
threshold, set the wakeup interval for clients in power-save mode, set the beacon
interval for the access point, set XPress mode and set whether short or long
preambles are used.
Click Save/Apply to set new advanced wireless options.
Field Description
AP Isolation Select On or Off. By enabling this feature, wireless
clients associated with the Access Point can be linked.
Band The new amendment allows IEEE 802.11g units to fall back to
speeds of 11 Mbps, so IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g devices
can coexist in the same network. The two standards apply to the
2.4 GHz frequency band. IEEE 802.11g creates data-rate parity at
2.4 GHz with the IEEE 802.11a standard, which has a 54 Mbps
rate at 5 GHz. (IEEE 802.11a has other differences compared to
IEEE 802.11b or g, such as offering more channels.)
Channel Drop-down menu that allows selection of a specific channel.
Auto Channel Auto channel scan timer in minutes (0 to disable)
Timer (min)
54g Rate Drop-down menu that specifies the following fixed rates: Auto:
Default. Uses the 11 Mbps data rate when possible but drops to
lower rates when necessary. 1 Mbps, 2Mbps, 5.5Mbps, or
11Mbps fixed rates. The appropriate setting is dependent on
signal strength.
Multicast Rate Setting for multicast packet transmit rate (1-54 Mbps)
Basic Rate Setting basic transmission rate.
