Configuring the Wireless 11g Router
52
SSID
: The Service Set ID. This should be set to the same value
as the other wireless devices in your network. (Default: ANY)
Note:
The SSID is case sensitive and can consist of up to 32
alphanumeric characters.
SSID Broadcast:
Broadcasting the SSID on the wireless network
for easy connection with client PCs. For security reasons, disable
SSID broadcast. (Default: Enable)
Wireless Mode:
Set the communication mode
for the Wireless 11g Router. (Default: Long
Range Mixed (11b+11g))
The Long Range Mixed (11b+11g) is an enhanced operation
mode. The 802.11g standards combines the IEEE 802.11a
speed with 54 Mbps. It provides a long range wireless
connectivity of 328 feet associated with the IEEE 802.11b
standards by offering faster speeds and longer distances from a
wireless access point to a wireless PC card.
g Nitro:
In a crowded 2.4 MHz frequency, the connection speed is
much lower than the promised 54 Mbps. The g Nitro
implemented by Intersil’s Prism Nitro technology dramatically
enhances your wireless network speeds. It provides up to 50%
more throughput in an 11g only environment, and improves
network throughput by 3 times in mixed mode. (Default: Enable)
Transmission Rate
: Set the rate of data transmitted
from the Wireless 11g Router. The lower the data rate,
the longer the transmission distance. (Default: Auto)
