Access Point Settings
Access Point: Default setting is set to Activated. If you do not have any wireless device in your
network, select Deactivated.
Channel ID: The range of radio frequencies used by IEEE 802.11b/g/n wireless devices is called a
channel. Select a channel from the drop-down list box.
Current Channel: indicate the current channel used.
Beacon interval: The Beacon Interval value indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. Enter a
value between 20 and 1000. A beacon is a packet broadcast by the Router to synchronize the wireless
network.
RTS/CTS Threshold: The RTS (Request To Send) threshold (number of bytes) for enabling
RTS/CTS handshake. Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS/CTS
handshake. Setting this attribute to be larger than the maximum MSDU (MAC service data unit) size
turns off the RTS/CTS handshake. Setting this attribute to zero turns on the RTS/CTS handshake
Enter a value between 1500 and 2347.
Fragmentation Threshold: The threshold (number of bytes) for the fragmentation boundary for
directed messages. It is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter a value between 256
and 2346.
DTIM: This value, between 1 and 255, indicates the interval of the Delivery Traffic Indication
Message (DTIM).
Wireless Mode: The default setting is 802.11b+g+n (Mixed mode). If you do not know or have both
11g and 11b devices in your network, then keep the default in mixed mode. From the drop-down
