Configuring the 2825

	Table 11—Advanced Wireless Settings
Field		Description
Data Rate		Specifies the rate of data transmission. Select the desired rate from
		the drop-down menu. Selecting Best adapts the rate to the best
		available. The default value is Best. The data rates that appear in the
		Data Rate drop-down menu are dependent on the Wireless Mode
		specified.
Transmit Power		Specifies the maximum transmit power level relative to the calibrated
		power. Select the level of transmit power from the drop-down menu.
		The default is Full
Beacon Interval		The Beacon Interval value indicates the frequency interval of the
		beacon in milliseconds. A beacon is a broadcast packet by Access
		Point (AP) to synchronize wireless network. The default value is 100.
Protection Mode		Protection is the mechanism to let 802.11 devices know when they
		should communicate to another device. This is most important when
		there is a mixed environment of both 802.11b and 802.11g clients.
		This function boosts the interoperability of 802.11b and 802.11g
		devices but will severely decrease performance.

NOTE – This window is used to set up the advanced wireless functions. These settings should only be changed by an experienced administrator. Incorrect settings can impact wireless performance. It is recommended that you keep the default settings for best performance.

5.Click Update Settings to confirm your choices. Table 12 describes the settings.

	Table 12—Security Disabled Parameters
Field		Description
Wireless Availability		Checking or unchecking this selection turns on or off your wireless
		network.
Broadcast SSID		This sets whether or not your SSID is visible to anyone looking for
		wireless networks. Disabling it means someone would have to know
		your SSID before connecting to your network.
SSID		This is the name of your wireless network. The default SSID is
		"V54-HOME001", but it is strongly recommended that you change it.
		If there are other wireless networks in your area, you should give your
		network a unique name. The SSID is case-sensitive and must not
		exceed 32 characters.
