Version 1.1

Advanced Settings

ƒClick on the Advanced Settings link under the Wireless menu. On this page you can configure the advanced settings to tweak the performance of your wireless network. Options available are: fragmentation threshold, RTS threshold, beacon interval, output power, preamble type, and 802.11g protection.

ƒAuthentication Type: select an authentication method. Options available are Open System, Shared Key or Auto. An open system allows any client to authenticate as long as it conforms to any MAC address filter policies that may have been set. All authentication packets are transmitted without encryption. Shared Key sends an unencrypted challenge text string to any device attempting to communicate with the AP. The device requesting authentication encrypts the challenge text and sends it back to the access point. If the challenge text is encrypted correctly, the access point allows the requesting device to authenticate. It is recommended to select Auto if you are not sure which authentication type is used.

ƒFragment Threshold: Packets over the specified size will be fragmented in order to improve performance on noisy networks.
