Parameter
Description
Wireless Mode
802.11 b
– This adapter can be compatible with both 802.11g and
802.11b wireless stations. If there are only 802.11b wireless
stations in the network, you can set the adapter to this mode.
802.11 g/b
– If you have a mix of 802.11b and 802.11g wireless
stations in your network, it is recommended to setting the adapter
to this mode.
Preamble Mode
The preamble defines the length of the CRC block for
communication among the wireless stations. There are three
mode including Long, Short and Auto. High network traffic areas
should use the shorter preamble type. If “Auto“ mode is selected,
the adapter will auto switch the preamble mode depending on the
wireless stations that the adapter is connecting to.
Note that the parameter is only active in the Ad Hoc operation
mode.
Channel Plan
The available channel differs from different countries. For
example: USA (FCC) is channel 1-11, Europe (ETSI) is channel
1-13. The channel of the adapter has been set depends on the
country you are located. If you are in different country, you could
change the channel from the pull-down list.
PSP XLink Mode
Enable this function to support PSP XLink.
WMM Parameter
QoS Enable
– Enable this function to support WMM.
Power Save (APSD) Enable
– Enable this function to support
WMM Power Save.
Fragment Threshold
The value defines the maximum size of packets; any packet size
larger than the value will be fragmented. If you have decreased
this value and experience high packet error rates, you can
increase it again, but it will likely decrease overall network
performance. Select a setting within a range of 256 to 2432 bytes.
Minor change is recommended.
RTS Threshold
Minimum packet size required for an RTS (Request To Send). For
packets smaller than this threshold, an RTS is not sent and the
packet is transmitted directly to the wireless network. Select a
setting within a range of 0 to 2432 bytes. Minor change is
recommended.
