6: Configuration via Serial Mode or Telnet Port
WiPort Embedded Wireless Device Server User Guide

Max TX Failures
Determines the maximum number of consecutive transmit packet failures before the
device will drop its association with the AP and attempt to establish a new one. The
range of attempts is 6 to 64; 255 equals disabled. The default is
6
failed attempts.
Max failed packets <6 – 64; 255=disable>: <6> ? _
Enable Power Management
This allows the software to turn off the radio when expecting not to receive or
transmit soon. This feature reduces the power consumption by up to 170 mA.
Enabling power management increases the response time, because the radio needs
to start up again. The radio is enabled to synchronize and check for incoming
messages (every 100 ms). The default value is N.
Note:
This option is not available when the
Topology
is set to
Adhoc.

Enable Soft AP Roaming
If enabled, SmartRoam (patent pending) manages the dynamic list of APs belonging
to the same network as the AP to which the WiPort is currently associated and stores
relevant selection criteria for this list. The WiPort uses these criteria to identify a
candidate AP. If the candidate AP is not the current one, the WiPort dissociates from
the current AP and associates to the candidate.
The roaming technology also triggers candidate selection if the WiPort reaches the
boundaries of good signal coverage for the current AP instead of waiting until signal
quality degrades substantially.
Choose to enable
Y
(Yes) or disable
N
(No) No Lantronix's (patent pending) Roam
technology. The default value is N.

Expert Settings (Option 5)
Note:
Change these settings via Telnet or serial connections only
Caution:
Only an expert should change these parameters. These
changes hold serious consequences.
