different configuration for the two mode within
Wireless | Advanced
menu. Please refer to
corresponding chapter.
Selecting the AP Mode:
Domain
–show the regulatory domain. [
The country code selection is for non US models only]
Channel
– select the channel that the access point will use to transmit and receive information.
Channels list will vary depending on selected band. [2.4GHz or 5GHz]
Band
– working bands on which your radios are working.
Seven bands listed: 2.4GHz(11ng HT20) , 2.4GHz(11ng HT40plus), 2.4GHz(11ng HT40minus) ,
5GHz(11a), 5GHz(11na HT20) , 5GHz(11na HT40plus), 5GHz(11na HT40minus) .
TxPower
– the BW1253s transmission output power in dBm.
RTS Threshold
– the AP sends Request to Send(RTS) frames to a particular receiving station and
negotiates the sending of a data frame. After receiving an RTS, the wireless station responds with a
Clear to Send(CTS) frame to acknowledge the right to begin transmission. The default value is
2347.[recommend]
Fragment Threshold
– It specifies the maximum size for a packet before data is fragmented into
multiple packets. If you experience a high packet error rate, you may slightly increase the
fragmentation threshold. Setting the fragmentation threshold too low may result in poor network
performance. Only minor modifications of this value are recommended. The default value is
2347.[recommend]
Beacon Interval
– the Beacon Interval value indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. A beacon
is a packet broadcast by the AP to synchronize the wireless network.
DCA
– Enable or Disable DCA service. DCA can help to choose the best working channel
automatically. And static channel selection will be forbidden if DCA is enabled.
