| Field | Description |
|
| Broadcast/Multicast | Setting a rate limit burst determines how much traffic bursts can be before all |
|
| Rate Limit Burst | traffic exceeds the rate limit. This burst limit allows intermittent bursts of |
|
|
| traffic on a network above the set rate limit. |
|
|
| The default and maximum rate limit burst setting is 75 packets per second. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Super AG | Enabling Super AG provides better performance by increasing radio |
|
|
| throughput. Keep in mind that, with Super AG enabled, the access point |
|
|
| transmissions will consume more bandwidth. |
|
|
| ∙ To enable Super AG, click Enabled. |
|
|
| ∙ To disable Super AG, click Disabled. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Extended Range | Atheros Extended Range (XR) is a proprietary method for implementing low |
|
|
| rate traffic over longer distances. It is transparent to XR enabled clients and |
|
|
| access points and is designed to be interoperable with the 802.11 standard in |
|
|
| 802.11g and 802.11a modes. There is no support for Atheros XR in 802.11b, |
|
|
| Atheros Turbo 5 GHz, or Atheros Dynamic Turbo 5 GHz. |
|
|
| Enabling Atheros XR will extend the range over which your client and access |
|
|
| point can operate. |
|
|
| ∙ To enable Extended Range, click Enabled. |
|
|
| ∙ To disable Extended Range, click Disabled. |
|
|
| This option will not be available if you selected the hardware mode IEEE |
|
|
| 802.11b, Atheros Turbo 5 GHz, or Atheros Dynamic Turbo 5 GHz. Atheros |
|
|
| XR is not supported by these hardware modes. |

|
|
| Channel | The Channel defines the portion of the radio spectrum that the radio uses for |
|
|
| transmitting and receiving. The range of channels and the default channel are |
|
|
| determined by the Mode of the radio interface. |
|
|
| “Auto” is the recommended mode because it automatically detects the best |
|
|
| channel choices based on signal strength, traffic loads, and so on. |
|
|
| If you select a number from the list as the operating channel, due to DFS |
|
|
| function (See “802.11h Regulatory Domain Control”), the actual operating |
|
|
| channel might be different from your selection. |
|
|
| If you want to know the current operation channel, please reference to |
|
|
| Chapter 10: Maintenance and Monitoring (status |
|
|
| channel of Wireless Settings. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Beacon Interval | Beacon frames are transmitted by an access point at regular intervals to |
|
|
| announce the existence of the wireless network. The default behavior is to |
|
|
| send a beacon frame once every 100 milliseconds (or 10 per second). |
|
|
| The Beacon Interval value is set in milliseconds. Enter a value from 20 to 2000. |
