￿Data Rate: Select a transmission rate from the drop-down list. It is recommended to use the auto option.

￿Preamble Type: Select a long or short preamble type. For best performance, it is recommended that the preamble type of the AP matches that of the client.

￿Broadcast SSID: Select Enable or Disable. This is the SSID broadcast feature. If you set this value to Visible, then the clients will be able to find this SSID on a site survey.

￿802.11g protection: If your network includes 11g and 11b clients, it’s recommended to enable the feature as this will enhance the throughput rate in a mixed mode.

￿User Isolation: Select Enable or Disable. This is a security feature that will isolate every client device that is associated with the device. One client device will not be able to view the other client device in a network neighborhood. If used in a public area such as a coffee shop, it is recommended to enable this feature in order to protect the privacy of the client devices.

￿RF Output Power: You may control the output power of the device by selecting a value. This feature can be helpful in restricting the coverage area of the wireless network.

￿QoS WMM: If you are using VoIP, it is recommended to enable WMM. Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) is a Wi-Fi Alliance interpretability certification, based on the IEEE 802.11e draft standard. It provides basic Quality of service (QoS) features to IEEE 802.11 networks. WMM prioritizes traffic according to 4 AC (Access Categories), however it does not provide guaranteed throughput. It is suitable for simple applications that require QoS, such as Wi-Fi Voice over IP (VoIP) phone
