specification (as described in IEEE Std. 802.11), and an optional Short Preamble 
and header (as described in IEEE Std. 802.11b). At the receiver, the Preamble and 
header are processed to aid in demodulation and delivery of the PSDU. The Short 
Preamble and header may be used to minimize overhead and, thus, maximize the 
network data throughput. However, the Short Preamble is supported only from the 
IEEE 802.11b (High-Rate) standard and not from the original IEEE 802.11. That 
means that stations using Short-Preamble cannot communicate with stations 
implementing the original version of the protocol. 

Support Band:

 There are two bands available for selection; 11B and 11G. 

Advanced 

The Advanced settings help you to control the Wireless Adapter to adjust with 
wireless devices in certain environment. 

 

Auth. Mode:

 Eight options are available: Disable, Auto, Open System, Shared 

Key, WPA/WPA2, and WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK. Select Auto, Disable for other 
authentication feature.    If one of the two options is selected, it is required to 
select the 

Encryption

 mode from the next dropping list.
