802.11 Mode
This makes sure that only compliant WLAN devices can associate
with the NWA.
Select
802.11b Only
to allow only IEEE 802.11b compliant WLAN
devices to associate with the NWA.
Select
802.11g Only
to allow only IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN
devices to associate with the NWA.
Select
802.11b/g
to allow both IEEE802.11b and IEEE802.11g
compliant WLAN devices to associate with the NWA. The
transmission rate of your NWA might be reduced.
Select
802.11a
to allow only IEEE 802.11a compliant WLAN
devices to associate with the NWA.
Super Mode
Select this to improve data throughput on the WLAN by enabling
fast frame and packet bursting.
Disable channel
switching for DFS
This field displays only when you select
802.11a
in the
802.11
Radio Mode
field. Select this if you do not want to use DFS
(Dynamic Frequency Selection).
DFS (dynamic frequency selection) allows an AP to detect other
devices in the same channel. If there is another device using the
same channel, the AP changes to a different channel, so that it can
avoid interference with radar systems or other wireless networks.
Choose Channel ID
Set the operating frequency/channel depending on your particular
region.
To manually set the NWA to use a channel, select a channel from
the drop-down list box. Click
MAINTENANCE
and then the
Channel Usage
tab to open the
Channel Usage
screen to make
sure the channel is not already used by another AP or independent
peer-to-peer wireless network.
To have the NWA automatically select a channel, click
Scan
instead.
Disable DCS to
unlock
This appears if the DCS feature is enabled.
Click this to disable DCS and select a channel ID manually.
Note: DCS is
Disabled
by default
Operating Channel
This field displays only when you select
802.11a
in the
802.11
Radio Mode
field.
This is the channel currently being used by your AP.
RTS/CTS Threshold Use RTS/CTS to reduce data collisions on the wireless network if
you have wireless clients that are associated with the same AP but
out of range of one another. When enabled, a wireless client sends
an RTS (Request To Send) and then waits for a CTS (Clear To Send)
before it transmits. This stops wireless clients from transmitting
packets at the same time (and causing data collisions).
A wireless client sends an RTS for all packets larger than the
number (of bytes) that you enter here. Set the RTS/CTS equal to or
higher than the fragmentation threshold to turn RTS/CTS off.
