Chapter 2 - CLI Commands
distance
Supported on: Wi² AP
distance (small | medium | large)
Sets the distance between access points.
Use this parameter to adjust the receiver sensitivity of the Wi² AP. This
parameter should only be changed if:
• you have more than one wireless access point installed in your location
• you are experiencing throughput problems
In all other cases, use the default setting of Large.
If you have installed multiple Wi² APs, reducing the receiver sensitivity of
the Wi² AP from its maximum will help to reduce the amount of crosstalk
between the wireless stations to better support roaming clients. By reducing
the receiver sensitivity, client stations will be more likely to connect with
the nearest access point.
dot11
Supported on: Wi² AP
dot11 <mode> <frequency>
Sets the wireless mode and the frequency the Wi² AP will operate at.
Parameters
<mode>
• b: Selects 802.11b providing 11 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz frequency band.
• g: Selects 802.11g providing 54 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz frequency band.
• bg: Selects 802.11b + 802.11g providing 11 and 54 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz
frequency band.
<frequency>
transmit power
Supported on: Wi² AP
transmit power (DB | max)
Sets the maximum transmission power of the wireless radio.
60
Sets the transmission speed and frequency band. The
available options are determined by the wireless card
installed in the Wi² AP, and may include:
Sets the operating frequency by specifying a number in
GHz or by specifying a channel number. The
frequencies that are available are determined by the
radio installed in the Wi² AP and the regulations that
apply in your country.
For optimum performance when operating in 802.11b
or 802.11g modes, choose a frequency that differs from
other wireless access points operating in neighboring
cells by at least 25 MHz.
