Access Point Settings
Access Point:
Default setting is set to Activated. If you do not have any wireless, both
802.11g and 802.11b, device in your network, select Deactived.
Channel :
The range of radio frequencies used by IEEE 802.11b/g wireless devices is
called a channel. Select a channel from the drop-down list box.
Current Channel:
Indicate the current channel used.
Transmit Power:
User can customize the transmit power to either high, medium or low.
Beacon interval
: The Beacon Interval value indicates the frequency interval of the
beacon. Enter a value between 20 and 1000. A beacon is a packet broadcast by the
Router to synchronize the wireless network.
RTS/CTS Threshold:
The RTS (Request To Send) threshold (number of bytes) for
enabling RTS/CTS handshake. Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform
the RTS/CTS handshake. Setting this attribute to be larger than the maximum MSDU
(MAC service data unit) size turns off the RTS/CTS handshake. Setting this attribute to
zero turns on the RTS/CTS handshake Enter a value between 1500 and 2347.
Fragmentation Threshold:
The threshold (number of bytes) for the fragmentation
boundary for directed messages. It is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent.
Enter a value between 256 and 2346.
DTIM:
This value, between 1 and 255, indicates the interval of the Delivery Traffic
Indication Message (DTIM).
802.11b/g:
The default setting is 802.11b+g (Mixed mode). If you do not know or have

card, then select 802.11b.
Multiple SSIDs Setting
SSID Index:
Default SSID index is “1”.
SSID:
The SSID is the unique name of a wireless access point (AP) to be distinguished
from another. For security propose, change the default
wlan-ap
to
a unique ID name to
the AP which is already built-in to the router’s wireless interface. It is case sensitive and
must not excess 32 characters. Make sure your wireless clients have exactly the SSID as
the device, in order to get connected to your network.
Broadcast SSID:
Select
No
to hide the SSID so a station cannot obtain the SSID
through passive scanning. Select
Yes
to make the SSID visible so a station can obtain the
SSID through passive scanning.
Use WPS:
select yes or no to determine whether to activate WPS function.
Authentication Type:
To prevent unauthorized wireless stations from accessing data
transmitted over the network, the router offers highly secure data encryption, known as
