Web Console Configuration

LAN Computers

This area of the screen continually updates to show all DHCP enabled computers and devices connected to the LAN side of your Access Point. The detection “range” is limited to the address range as configured in DHCP Server. Computers that have an address outside of this range will not appear. If the DHCP Client (i.e. a computer configured to “Automatically obtain an address”) supplies a Host Name then that will also be shown. Any computer or device that has a static IP address that lies within the detection “range” may show, however its host name will not.

Wireless

The wireless section allows you to view the wireless clients that are connected to your wireless Access Point.

MAC Address

The Ethernet ID (MAC address) of the wireless client.

IP Address

The LAN-side IP address of the client.

Mode

The transmission standard being used by the client. Values are 11a, 11b, or 11g for 802.11a, 802.11b, or 802.11g respectively.

Rate

The actual transmission rate of the client in megabits per second.

Signal

This is a relative measure of signal quality. The value is expressed as a percentage of theoretical best quality. Signal quality can be reduced by distance, by interference from other radio-frequency sources (such as cordless telephones or neighboring wireless networks), and by obstacles between the Access Point and the wireless device.
