This performs a RTS/CTS process before sending frames with a size
that exceeds the threshold value. This enables improved reliability in
frame transfers when the surrounding environment is poor, where
separated from the AirStation by considerable distance, or other adverse
conditions.
Frames with a size larger than this threshold value are broken up
before sending. This improves reliability of frame transfers when the
wireless environment is poor, when separated from the AirStation by
considerable distance, or other adverse conditions.
This setting controls the communication speed of multicast packets.
When set to "Auto", the communication speed is determined
automatically for maximizing the coverage distance.
802.11g
Auto, 1, 2, 5.5, 6, 9, 11, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, or 54 Mbps can be selected.
802.11a
Auto, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, or 54 Mbps can be selected.
Because the multicast communication speed and coverage distance are
inversely proportional to each other, this setting is recommended only
when necessary.
Specify the output power when the AirStation performs wireless
transmission.
Enter the interval for sending beacons. If the interval is long, wireless
communication performance may be improved, but the capability of the
wireless device to detect the AirStation will be reduced.
Normally, usage at the default value is recommended.
Specify the interval for confirming whether the AirStation is connected
to the wireless device. Normally, this setting can be used at the default
value (60), but in some wireless devices, setting a larger value enables
more stable communication and reduced power consumption.
When set to 0, the connection is not confirmed by the AirStation, but in
environments where a large unspecified number of wireless devices are
connected, a new wireless device may be unable to make a connection.
This enables reduced power consumption in devices when
communicating with 11n standard wireless devices that have two or
more transmission systems (11n2x or later).
If "Enabled (Static)" is selected, communication with the AirStation
always uses one transmission system. Because power does not need to
be supplied to other transmission systems, this enables maximum power
efficiency.
If "Enabled (Dynamic)" is selected, the AirStation can request the
receiving wireless device to use the second or later transmission system
if needed. Unless it is needed, power does not need to be supplied to
more than one transmission system, and this enables the providing of
both high-speed communication and power saving.
