Field Description
Channel Drop-down menu that allows selection of a specific
channel.
Auto Channel Timer
(min) Auto channel scan timer in minutes (0 to disable)
802.11n/EWC An equipment interoperability standard setting based on
IEEE 802.11n Draft 2.0 and Enhanced Wireless
Consortium (EWC)
Bandwidth Select 20MHz or 20MHz/40MHz Mixed.
Control Sideband Select Upper or Lower sideband when in 20MHz/40MHz
mixed mode.
802.11n Rate Set the physical transmission rate (PHY).
802.11n Protection Turn Off for maximized throughput.
Turn On for greater security.
Support 802.11n
Client Only Turn Off to allow 802.11b/g clients access to the router.
Turn On to prohibit 802.11b/g client’s access to the router.
RIFS Advertisement One of several draft-n features designed to improve
efficiency. Provides a shorter delay between OFDM
transmissions than in802.11a or g.
OBSS Co-Existence Co-existence between 20 MHZ AND 40 MHZ overlapping
Basic Service Set (OBSS) in WLAN.
RX Chain Power Save Enabling this feature turns off one of the Receive chains,
going from 2x2 to 2x1 to save power.
RX Chain Power Save
Quiet Time The number of seconds the traffic must be below the PPS
value below before the Rx Chain Power Save feature
activates itself.
RX Chain Power Save
PPS The maximum number of packets per seconds that can be
processed by the WLAN interface for a duration of Quiet
Time, described above, before the Rx Chain Power Save
feature activates itself.
54g Rate Drop-down menu that specifies the following fixed rates:
Auto: Default. Uses the 11 Mbps data rate when possible
but drops to lower rates when necessary. 1 Mbps, 2Mbps,
5.5Mbps, or 11Mbps fixed rates. The appropriate setting
is dependent on signal strength.
Multicast Rate Setting for multicast packet transmit rate (1-54 Mbps)
Basic Rate Setting for basic transmission rate.
Fragmentation
Threshold A threshold, specified in bytes, that determines whether
packets will be fragmented and at what size. On an
802.11 WLAN, packets that exceed the fragmentation
threshold are fragmented, i.e., split into, smaller units
suitable for the circuit size. Packets smaller than the
specified fragmentation threshold value are not
fragmented. Enter a value between 256 and 2346. If you
experience a high packet error rate, try to slightly increase
your Fragmentation Threshold. The value should remain
at its default setting of 2346. Setting the Fragmentation
Threshold too low may result in poor performance.
