Advanced Settings

These settings are only for more technically advanced users who have sufficient knowledge about wireless LAN. These settings should not be changed unless you know what effect the changes will have on your device. The default setting is optimized for the normal operation. For specific application, setting configuration will required highly attention to reach optimistic condition.

NoteAny unreasonable value change to default setting will reduce the throughput of the device.

Authentication Type

The device supports two Authentication Types “Open system” and “Shared Key”. When you select “Share Key”, you need to setup “WEP” key in “Security” page (See the next section). The default setting is “Auto”. The wireless client can associate with the device by using one of the two types.

Fragment Threshold

The fragmentation threshold determines the size at which packets are fragmented (sent as several pieces instead of as one block). Use a low setting in areas where communication is poor or where there is a great deal of radio interference. This function will help you to improve the network performance.

RTS Threshold

The RTS threshold determines the packet size at which the radio issues a request to send (RTS) before sending the packet. A low RTS Threshold setting
