6. Select or clear the Enable Tx Beamforming check box.
Selecting this check box enables explicit beamforming. (Tx beamforming is another
term for explicit beamforming.)
By default, MU-MIMO is enabled, and therefore explicit beamforming is also enabled.
If MU-MIMO is disabled, explicit beamforming is automatically enabled, but you can
disable it.
7. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved. The radios restart and WiFi clients might need to reconnect.
Enable or disable PMF
Protected Management Frames (PMF), according to the 802.11w standard, is a security
feature that protects unicast and multicast management frames from being intercepted
and changed for malicious purposes. PMF, which is enabled by default, requires devices
on the AP WiFi networks to support PMF. However, you can disable PMF, for example,
if your network includes many legacy WiFi clients that do not support PMF.
To enable or disable PMF:
1. Connect your computer or mobile device to the AP in one of the following ways
•
Connect directly to the AP’s WiFi network or LAN. (Applies to the AP in either
operation mode.)
•
Connect to the same network that the AP is connected to. (Applies only if the AP
is operating in AP mode.)
2. Launch a web browser and enter http://www.routerlogin.net in the address field.
Instead, if you are connected to same network as the AP, enter the LAN IP address
that is assigned to the AP. For information about finding the IP address, see Find the
IP address of the AP when you cannot use routerlogin.net on page 34.
A login window displays.
If your browser displays a security warning, dismiss the warning. For more information,
see Dismiss a browser security warning on page 39.
3. Enter the AP local device password.
The local device password is the one that you specified. The local device password
is case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Wireless Settings.
