Restricting wireless access by MAC address
When a wireless card access list is configured and enabled, the router checks the MAC address of any
wireless device attempting a connection and allows only connections to computers identified on the
trusted computer list.
The MAC address is a network device's unique 12-character physical address, containing the
hexadecimal characters 0–9, a–f, or A–F only. The MAC address is in the format of
XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX.
To restrict wireless access by MAC address:
Step 1 Click Setup Access List button in the Wireless Advanced Settings page to display the
Wireless Card Access List page.
The default value is 100 ms
Set the maximum number of clients. 0 indicates the number of
connected clients is not limited
Set the CTS/RTS threshold. If the length of a packet is greater than
the specified RTS value, WNAP-1260 sends an RTS frame to the
destination station to negotiate. After receiving an RTS frame, the
wireless station responds with a Clear to Send (CTS) frame to
WNAP-1260, notifying that they can communicate with each other
A preamble (especially the 802.11b High Rate/DSSS PHY field; 56
digits synchronized field for short preamble) defines the length of the
CRC correction block for communication between wireless devices.
Short preamble should be applied in a network with intense traffics.
It helps improve the efficiency of a wireless network responding to
applications that have high requirement of real-time, such as
streaming video and voice-over-IP telephony.
Short GI:
The interval is 400 ns. When short GI is enabled, WNAP-1260
can receive and send short-frame-interval packets. This helps
improve the transmission rate of WNAP-1260.
Long GI:
The interval is 800 ns.
Set the transmit power of the wireless network. It is recommended to
use the default setting of 100%.
