ProSafe Dual Band Wireless Access Point WAG102 Reference Manual (802.11a/g)
Configuring Advanced Wireless Settings
The Advanced Wireless Settings screen is used to enable the Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) support, and to configure and enable various wireless LAN parameters for both the 11a and 11b/g modes. The default wireless LAN parameters usually work well. However, you can use these settings to fine tune the overall performance of your wireless access point for your environment.
The Advanced Wireless Settings menu is used to configure the following:
•Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) Support. Wireless Multimedia (WMM) is a subset of the 802.11e standard. WMM allows wireless traffic to have a range of priorities, depending on the type of data. Time-dependent information, such as video or audio, has a higher priority than normal traffic. For WMM to function correctly, Wireless clients must also support WMM.
•Other Wireless LAN Parameters. The default advanced wireless LAN parameter settings usually work well. If you want the wireless access point to operate in SuperA mode (for 11a) or SuperG mode (for 11b/g), use this feature.
To configure Advanced Wireless Settings:
1.From the main menu under Advanced, select Wireless Settings 11a or Wireless Settings 11b/g. The Advanced Wireless Settings screen you selected will display,
