Advanced Global Wi-Fi settings
The Advanced Global Wi-Fi settings control the behavior of the protocols used in Wi-Fi
communications at a more detailed level.
EAP Timeout
An inactivity timeout during enterprise mode authentication. This parameter is used when the
device is configured as an Access Point.
EAP Identity Request Timeout
When the device is configured as an Access Point, this parameter sets the time the device waits
after sending an ID request to the Wi-Fi client.
Noise floor offset
This parameter applies to TransPort WR44v2 models with a Wi-Fi a/b/g/n module only.
Normally, users do not need to change this parameter.
An offset, specified in dBm, that is added to the noise floor calculated by the Wi-Fi module and
used in clear-channel assessment when frames are transmitted, and in determining the signal
strength of clients. Using this parameter can address problems in noisy environments where the
Wi-Fi module may calculate the noise floor as too low, which can result in a breakdown in Wi-Fi
communications. Note, however, that a higher noise floor offset value can result in decreased
sensitivity (range).
WARNING! Changing this value from its default of 0 dBm can severely impact device
performance. Change this setting only under the direction of Digi Technical Support.
