Select the wireless band used here. Options

to choose from are

2.4 GHz

and

5 GHz

. In this

section we’ll explain the

2.4GHz

wireless band.

Use the drop-down menu to turn the wireless

function

Off

Select the wireless mode here. Options to choose

from are

Mixed 802.11n, 802.11g and 802.11b

Mixed 802.11g and 802.11b

and

802.11n Only

Only after selecting the

Mixed 802.11g and

802.11b

option as the wireless mode, can the

data rate be selected. Select the data rate here.

Options to choose from are

5.5

and

Mbps.

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.

*Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Actual data throughput may vary. Network conditions and environmental factors, including volume of network traffic, building materials

and construction, and network overhead can lower actual data throughout rate.

Select a Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTM) setting between 1 and 15. 1 is the default setting. DTIM is a countdown

informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages.

This setting determines the power level of the wireless transmission. Transmitting power can be adjusted to eliminate overlapping

of wireless area coverage between two access points where interference is a major concern. For example, if wireless coverage

is intended for half of the area, then select 50% as the option. Use the drop-down menu to select 100%, 50%, 25%, or 12.5%.
