Preamble Type

 

Set the type of preamble of wireless radio. The default 
setting is ‘Short Preamble’. 

Broadcast ESSID

 

Decide if the wireless access point will broadcast its own 
ESSID or not. You can hide the ESSID of your wireless access 
point (set the option to ‘Disable’), so only people who know 
the ESSID of your wireless access point can get connected. 

WMM

 

WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) technology, which can improve the 
performance of certain network applications, like audio/video 
streaming, network telephony (VoIP), and others. When you 
enable WMM, the access point will define the priority of 
different kinds of data, to give higher priority to applications 
which require instant response. Therefore you can improve 
the performance of such network applications. 

CTS Protect

 

Enabling this setting will reduce the chance of radio signal 
collisions between 802.11b and 802.11g wireless access 
points. It’s recommended to set this option to ‘Auto’. 

TX Power

 

You can set the output power of wireless radio. Unless you’re 
using this wireless access point in a really big space, you 
may not have to set output power to 100%. This will enhance 
security (malicious / unknown users on a distance will not be 
able to reach your wireless access point).
