Preamble Settings	a) Shows current value
	b) Choose other settings available from pull-down menu
	The radio preamble is a section of data at the head of a packet that
	contains information the airPoint™	Device and Remote devices need
	when sending and receiving packets.
	The pull-down menu shows user to select a long, short or dynamic radio
	preamble. Default is dynamic.
	Long: a long preamble ensures compatibility with most clients.
	Short: a short preamble improves throughput performance. But only allow
	short preamble capable clients to associate.
	Dynamic: a dynamic preamble allows mixing of short and long preamble.
Throughput Optimizer	Throughput Optimizer is used to optimize the radio link speed.
	The valid range is 0 to 10. A higher value means the radio will attempt to
	establish the highest possible data rate in an aggressive way.
	A smaller value ensures a more stable link. The Throughput Optimizer
	settings can be varied to achieve a most stable link.
