RTS Threshold
: Packets over the specified size will use the RTS/CTS mechanism to
maintain performance in noisy networks and preventing hidden nodes from
degrading the performance. Specify a value between 1 and 65535. The default value
is 2347.
Beacon Period
: Beacons are packets sent by a wireless Access Point to
synchronize wireless devices. Specify a Beacon Period value between 20 and 1000.
The default value is set to 100 milliseconds.
DITM Interval
: A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for
listening to broadcast and multicast messages. When the wireless Access Point has
buffered broadcast or multicast messages for associated clients, it sends the next
DTIM with a DTIM Interval value. Wireless clients detect the beacons and awaken to
receive the broadcast and multicast messages. The default value is 1. Valid settings
are between 1 and 255.
Transmit Power
: You may control the output power of the device by selecting a
value from the drop-down list. This feature can be helpful in restricting the coverage
area of the wireless network.
Layer 2 Isolation
: Enable this feature if you would like this device hidden under
windows neighborhood. Users at a hotspot will not be able to share files through a
neighborhood.
WDS
: Place a check in this box to enable WDS (Wireless Distribution System). When
WDS is enabled, this access point functions as a wireless repeater and is able to
wirelessly communicate with other APs via WDS links.
Note
that WDS is incompatible with WPA -- both features cannot be used at the
same time. A WDS link is bidirectional; so this AP must know the MAC Address
(creates the WDS link) of the other AP, and the other AP must have a WDS link back
to this AP. Make sure the APs are configured with same channel number.
WDS AP MAC Address
: Specify one-half of the WDS link. The other AP must also
have the MAC address of this AP to create the WDS link back to this AP.
