Parameter
Description
Chinese, this item will be displayed. You can select UTF-8 or GBK.
Band
Set the band used by the Wi-Fi signal. The options are 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. The 5
GHz band provides faster network transmission rate and less interference than the
2.4 GHz band, but is inferior to the 2.4 GHz band in terms of signal coverage range
and wall penetration performance. Select a proper band based on actual needs. The
default value is
2.4G + 5G
, indicating that the device provides signals at both 2.4 GHz
and 5 GHz bands.
Security
Select an encryption mode for the wireless network connection. The options are as
follows:
Open: The device can associate with Wi-Fi without a password.
WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK: Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) or WPA2 is used for
encryption.
WPA_WPA2-PSK (recommended): WPA2-PSK or WPA-PSK is used for encryption.
Wi-Fi Password
Specify the password for connection to the wireless network. The password is a string
of 8 to 16 characters.
Wireless Schedule
Specify the time periods during which Wi-Fi is enabled. After you set this parameter,
users cannot connect to Wi-Fi in other periods.
VLAN
Set the VLAN to which the Wi-Fi signal belongs.
Hide SSID
Enabling the hide SSID function can prevent unauthorized user access to Wi-Fi,
improving security. However, mobile phones or computers cannot find the Wi-Fi name
after this function is enabled. You must manually enter the correct name and
password to connect to Wi-Fi. Record the current Wi-Fi name before you enable this
function.
Client Isolation
After you enable this parameter, clients associated with the Wi-Fi are isolated from
one other, and end users connected to the same AP (in the same network segment)
cannot access each other. This improves security.
Band Steering
After this function is enabled, 5G-capable clients select 5G Wi-Fi preferentially. You
can enable this function only when
Band
is set to
2.4G + 5G
.
XPress
After this function is enabled, the device sends game packets preferentially, providing
more stable wireless network for games.
Layer-3 Roaming
After this function is enabled, clients keep their IP addresses unchanged when
associating with the same Wi-Fi. This function improves the roaming experience of
users in the cross-VLAN scenario.
Wi-Fi6
After this function is enabled, wireless users can have faster network access speed
and optimized network access experience.
This function is valid only on APs and routers supporting 802.11ax. Clients must also
