Output Power Set the output power of the WAP5705 in this field. If there is a high density of APs in an
area, decrease the output power of the WAP5705 to reduce interference with other APs.
Select one of the following
100% , 90% , 75% , 50% , 25% or 10% . See the product
specifications for more information on your WAP5705’s output power.
Network Mode This displays 11 a/n mixed mode and only IEEE802.11a or IEEE802.11n compliant WLAN
devices can associate with the WAP5705.
DLS Select Enabled to activate IEEE 802.11e Direct Link Setup (DLS) on the WAP5705. This
allows all wireless clients that support DLS and are in the same wireless network (BSS) to
communicate with each other directly. Traffic within the BSS can be sent from one client to
another without going through the access point (WAP5705).
HT (High Throughput) Physical Mode - Use the fields below to configure the 802.11 wireless environment of
your WAP5705.
Operating
Mode Choose this according to the wireless mode(s) used in your network.
Mixed - Select this if the wireless clients in your network use different wireless modes (for
example, IEEE 802.11a and IEEE 802.1n modes).
Green - Select this if the wireless clients in your network uses only one type of wireless
mode (for example, IEEEE 802.11 n only).
Channel
Bandwidth Select the channel bandwidth you want to use for your wireless network.
It is recommended that you select 20/40 MHz .
Select 20 MHz if you want to lessen radio interference with other wireless devices in your
neighborhood.
Guard Interval Select Auto to increase data throughput. However, this may make data transfer more prone
to errors.
Select Long to prioritize data integrity. This may be because your wireless network is busy
and congested or the WAP5705 is located in an environment prone to radio interference.
Extension
Channel This is set to Auto by default.
If you select 20/40 MHz as your Channel Bandwidth , the extension channel enables the
WAP5705 to get higher data throughput. This also lowers radio interference and traffic.
