4.6.3
Wireless Settings
4.6.3.1
Hardware wireless settings
Enable radio. Check the box to enable the wireless function. If you do not want to use
wireless network, uncheck the box to disable the wireless function.
IEEE mode. Specify the wireless network mode [B, G, mixed B/G, G Dynamic Turbo].
Channel. Select the channel for the wireless network.
Transmit power. Set the maximum transmitter radiation power.
4.6.3.2
Software wireless settings
SSID. Specify a unique name for your wireless network.
Fragmentation. Specify the fragmentation threshold (in bytes), which determines whether data
frames will be fragmented and at what size [256-2346/off/auto]. On the 802.11 wireless LAN, frames
exceeding the fragmentation threshold will be fragmented, i.e., split into smaller units suitable for the
circuit size. Data frames smaller than the specified fragmentation threshold value are not fragmented.
Default: off.
RTS. Specify the maximum packet size beyond which the wireless LAN card invokes it's
RTS/CTS mechanism [0-2347/off/auto]. Packets that exceed the specified RTS threshold trigger the
RTS/CTS mechanism. The card transmits packets smaller than this threshold without using RTS/CTS.
Default: off.
Fast Frames. Packet aggregation and timing modifications. Default: off.
Packet Bursting. More data frames per given time period. Default: off.
Compression. Standards based (Lempel Ziv) real-time hardware compression. Default: off.
Quality of service (WMM). Check the box to enable applications such as audio, video and
voice to have higher priority than less-sensitive data applications.
User isolation. Check the box to isolate the wireless clients from communicating with each
other.
Hide ESSID. Hides the wireless LAN SSID. Default: off.
