Wireless Mode:

Use the drop-down menu to turn the wireless function
On or Off.

The different combination of clients that can be
supported include

Mixed 802.11n, 802.11g and

802.11b, Mixed 802.11g and 802.11b, and 802.11n
Only in the 2.4 �Hz band and Mixed 802.11n and
802.11a,  802.11a  only,  and  802.11n  Only  in  the
5  �Hz  band.  Please  note  that  when  backwards
compatibility  is  enabled  for  legacy  (802.11a/g/b)
clients,  degradation  of  802.11n  (draft)  wireless
performance is expected.

The Performance Settings window offers a number of user-controlled
settings designed to optimize the performance of the DAP-2590.
After completing the desired settings, click the Save button to let
your changes take effect.

Beacons are packets sent by an access point to synchronize a wireless network. Specify a value in milliseconds. The default
(

100) is recommended. Setting a higher beacon interval can help to save the power of wireless clients, while setting a lower

one can help a wireless client connect to an access point faster.

Indicate the base transfer rate of wireless adapters on the wireless LAN. The AP will adjust the base transfer rate depending
on the base rate of the connected device. If there are obstacles or interference, the AP will step down the rate. This option
is enabled in Mixed 802.11g and 802.11b mode (for 2.4 �Hz) and 802.11a only mode (for 5 �Hz). The choices available
are

Best (Up to 54), 54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9, and 6 for 5 �Hz and Best (Up to 54), 54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9, 6, 11, 5.5, 2

and

1 for 2.4 �Hz.

Data Rate*:

Beacon Interval

(25-500):

�Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11g, 802.11a and Draft 802.11n specifications. Actual data throughput will vary. Network conditions and
environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials and construction, and network overhead, lower actual data throughput rate. Environmental
conditions will adversely affect wireless signal range.
