Changing the Preamble Length Setting
The preamble property allows you to select the length of the preamble used to make a
connection. If you have a problem connecting to an access point, please contact your
system administrator or check the preamble length setting. If it is determined that a long
preamble length is required to connect to the access point, try changing the preamble to
"Long Only," this option always uses a long preamble to connect to the access point. The
"Auto" (Default) setting option allows automatic detection of the preamble setting
received from the access point to enable the appropriate preamble option. Short
preamble is used if this option is supported, if not, long preamble is used.
