•
Authentication Type
: There are two authentication types: "Open System"
and "Shared Key". When you select "Open System", wireless stations can
associate with this wireless router without WEP encryption. When you select
"Shared Key", you should also setup a WEP key in the "Encryption" page. After
this has been done, make sure the wireless clients that you want to connect to
the device are also setup with the same encryption key.
•
Fragment Threshold
: "Fragment Threshold" specifies the maximum size of a
packet during the fragmentation of data to be transmitted. If you set this
value too low, it will result in bad performance.
•
RTS Threshold
: When the packet size is smaller then the RTS threshold, the
wireless router will not use the RTS/CTS mechanism to send this packet.
•
Beacon Interval
: This 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
: This 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
