Description
There are two authentication options: "Open System"
and "Shared Key." When you select "Open System,"
wireless stations can associate with this wireless
router without WEP encryption. When you select
"Shared Key," you should also set up WEP key on the
Encryption screen and wireless stations should use
WEP encryption in the authentication phase to
associate with this wireless router. If you select
"Auto," the wireless client can associate with this
wireless router by using either of the authentication
types.
Specify the maximum size of packets during the
fragmentation of data to be transmitted. Note: If you
set this value too low, it will result in bad performance.
