Advanced
Advanced features of the wireless LAN interface can be configured in this
section.
Settings can be configured for the following—
•
AP Isolation
—if you select enable, then each of your wireless clients
will not be able to communicate with each other.
•
Band
—a default setting at 2.4GHz – 802.11g
•
Channel
-- 802.11b and 802.11g use channels to limit interference
from other devices. If you are experiencing interference with another
2.4Ghz device such as a baby monitor, security alarm, or cordless
phone, then change the channel on your Lynx L-525.
•
Multicast Rate
—the rate at which a message is sent to a specified
group of recipients.
•
Basic Rate
—the set of data transfer rates that all the stations will be
capable of using to receive frames from a wireless medium.
•
Fragmentation Threshold
—used to fragment packets, which help
improve performance in the presence of radio frequency (RF)
interference.
•
RTS Threshold (Request to Send Threshold)
—determines the
packet size of a transmission through the use of the Lynx L-525 to help
control traffic flow.
•
DTIM Interval
—sets the Wake-up interval for clients in power-saving
mode.
•
Beacon Interval
—a packet of information that is sent from a
connected device to all other devices where it announces its
availability and readiness. A beacon interval is a period of time (sent
with the beacon) before sending the beacon again. The beacon interval
may be adjusted in milliseconds (ms).
•
Xpress Technology—
a technology that utilizes standards based on
framebursting to achieve higher throughput. With Xpress Technology
enabled, aggregate throughput (the sum of the individual throughput
speeds of each client on the network) can improve by up to 25% in
802.11g only networks and up to 75% in mixed networks comprised of
802.11g and 802.11b equipment
.
