Advanced Settings 

 

These settings are only for more technically advanced users who have sufficient 
knowledge about wireless LAN. These settings should not be changed unless you know 
what effect the changes will have on your device. The default setting is optimized for the 
normal operation. For specific application, setting configuration will required highly 
attention to reach optimistic condition.   

Note: Any unreasonable value change to default setting will reduce the throughput of the 

device.  

 

Authentication Type 

 

The device supports two Authentication Types “Open system” and “Shared Key”. When 
you select “Share Key”, you need to setup “WEP” key in “Security” page (See the next 
section). The default setting is “Auto”. The wireless client can associate with the device 
by using one of the two types.   

Fragment Threshold 

 

The fragmentation threshold determines the size at which packets are fragmented (sent as 
several pieces instead of as one block). Use a low setting in areas where communication 
is poor or where there is a great deal of radio interference. This function will help you to 
improve the network performance.
