Beacon Interval

is the interval of time that this wireless router broadcasts a

beacon. A Beacon is used to synchronize the wireless network.

Data Rate

The “Data Rate” is the rate that this access point uses to transmit

data packets. The access point will use the highest possible selected transmission
rate to transmit the data packets.

N Data Rate

The “Data Rate” is the rate that this access point uses to transmit

data packets for N compliant wireless nodes. Highest to lowest data rate can be
fixed.

Channel Bandwidth

is the range of frequencies that will be used.

Preamble Type

The “Long Preamble” can provide better wireless LAN

compatibility while the “Short Preamble” can provide better wireless LAN
performance.

Broadcast ESSID

If you enabled “Broadcast ESSID”, every wireless station

located within the coverage of this access point can discover this access point
easily. If you are building a public wireless network, enabling this feature is
recommended. Disabling “Broadcast ESSID” can provide better security.

CTS Protection:

It is recommended to enable the protection mechanism. This

mechanism can decrease the rate of data collision between 802.11b and 802.11g
wireless stations. When the protection mode is enabled, the throughput of the AP
will be a little lower due to a lot of frame-network that is transmitted.

TX Power

can be set to a bare minimum or maximum power.

WMM

Wi-Fi Multi Media if enabled supports QoS for experiencing better audio,

video and voice in applications.
