Wireless— Advanced Settings Page
These settings are only for more technically advanced users who have a sufficient knowledge about
wireless LAN. These settings should not be changed unless you know what effect the changes will have
on your Access Point.
l
Authentication Type
This setting has to be consistent with the wireless devices, which the adapter intends to connect.
•
Open System –
No authentication is needed among the wireless devices.
•
Shared Key –
Only wireless devices using a shared key (WEP Key) are allowed to connecting each
other. Setup the same key as the wireless devices, which the adapter intends to connect.
•
Auto –
Auto switch the authentication algorithm depending on the wireless devices which the adapter
is connecting to.
l
Fragment Threshold
The value defines the maximum size of packets: any packet size larger than the value will be fragmented.
If you have decreased this value and experience high packet error rates, you can increase it again, but it
will likely decrease overall network performance. Select a setting within a range of 256 to 2346 bytes.
Minor change is recommended.
l
RTS Threshold
Minimum packet size required for an RTS (Request To Send). For packets smaller than this threshold,
an RTS is not sent and the packet is transmitted directly to the WLAN. Select a setting within a range of
0 to 2347 bytes. Minor change is recommended
