other. 

 

 

Security 

Select WEP, TKIP or AES as the encryption algorithm. Type the 
key number if required. 

Peer Mac Address 

Type the peer MAC address for the access point that VigorAP 
800 connects to. 

Packet-OVERDRIVE 

This feature can enhance the performance in data transmission 
about 40%* more (by checking

 Tx Burs

t). It is active only when 

both sides of Access Point and Station (in wireless client) invoke 
this function at the same time. That is, the wireless client must 
support this feature and invoke the function, too. 

 

Note: 

Vigor N61 wireless adapter supports this function. 

Therefore, you can use and install it into your PC for matching 
with Packet-OVERDRIVE (refer to the following picture of 
Vigor N61 wireless utility window, choose 

Enable

 for 

TxBURST

 on the tab of 

Option

). 

 

 

WMM Capable 

To apply WMM parameters for wireless data transmission, 
please click the 

Enable

 radio button. 

Antenna 

VigorAP 800 can be attached with two antennas to have good 
data transmission via wireless connection. However, if you have 
only one antenna attached, please choose 1T1R. 

 

 

Tx Power 

The default setting is the maximum (100%). Lower down the 
value may degrade range and throughput of wireless.
