Authentication Type -

Select Open System, Shared Key, or Both:

Open System:

With this setting any station in the WLAN can associate with an

 

AP and receive and transmit data (null authentication).

Shared Key:

With this setting only stations using a shared key encryption

 

identified by the AP are allowed to associate with it.

Both:

With this setting stations communicate with the AP either with

 

or without data encryption.

Preamble Type (Short/Long) - Preamble is the first subfield of PPDU, which is the appropriate frame format for transmission to PHY (Physical layer). There are two options, Short Preamble and Long Preamble. The Short Preamble option improves throughput performance.

Rate -

By default the unit adaptively selects the highest possible rate

 

for transmission.

 

Select the basic & supported rates to be used among the

 

following options 1 - 2 - 5.5 - 11 (Mbps).

Auto Rate Fall Back -

When this is enabled the transmission rate is the optimum rate.

 

In case of obstacles or interference, the system will automatically

 

fall back.

Regulatory Domain -

The value of this field is already set and can not be modified.

Rx/Tx Antenna -

Here you can decide how the AP will use each Antenna.

International Roaming -

The Access Point can support the International Roaming (IEEE

 

802.11d) function if this option is enabled.
