    CHAPTER 5 BASIC IP NETWORKING 5 BASIC IP NETWORKING IP = Internet Protocol IP stands for Internet Protocol. In an IP network, every device has a unique IP Address (For example: 192.168.1.35) to identify itself. There are two ways of assigning an IP address to a PC or Router: Static and Automatic (DHCP).
  • Page 14: Ssid

    CHAPTER 5 BASIC IP NETWORKING The AP can even support 108Mbps wireless data rate at Turbo mode. This is only applicable for user using recommended Turbo-capable Cardbus (with Atheros chipset). WLAN networking involves a few additional parameters to be configured: SSID The SSID is the “network name”...
  • Page 15: Roaming

    CHAPTER 5 BASIC IP NETWORKING 5.12 Roaming Association happens when the SSID, Encryption and MAC Address Control settings are correct between the AP and client. If 2 APs with these same settings are located in the same area, the client would choose to associate to the one which gives it a better signal strength. The client would roam over to the 2nd AP when he moves nearer to it.

However it is recommended to set the setting to “Best” for the AP to determine the best data rate to be use. Transmit Power: Sometimes, it is useful to decrease the coverage range of each AP, so that more APs can be located together without interference to one another.
  • Page 24 CHAPTER 7 CONFIGURATION MENU Data Beacon Rate (DTIM): Choose between 1 to 255.This is always a multiple of the beacon interval. It determines how often the beacon contains a delivery traffic indication message (DTIM). The DTIM tells power-save client devices that a packet is waiting for them. RTS/CTS Threshold: Enter a value between 0 and 2347.
