Power Saving

Select between OFF, Normal, or Maximum.

Transmit Power

By selecting the Transmit Power, you can select the Radio Frequency output power from Minimum, 12.5%, 25%, 50%,100%, or Auto.

Preamble Type

The usage of the preamble is to limit the packet size of the data to transmit. It is recommended to choose the short preamble when the link quality is bad. This is to prevent wasting time re-sending a lost long packet. The Default is Auto which access short and long preamble.

Authentication Mode

Open System - with the same WEP key between the stations, the stations does not need to be authenticated.

Shared Key - with the same WEP key between the stations in this Authentication algorithm, this type will use packets with encryption by transferring a challenge text which will be acknowledge by both side of the stations. In order to choose which authentication algorithm will be used, you must know which one the station supports this algorithm first.

Fragmentation Threshold

Fragmentation Threshold is a way of transmitting the packets that will be fragmented. Choose a setting within a range of 256 to 2432. It is recommended to fragment the packet when the link quality is bad, it is to prevent the wasting time of re-sending a long packet that is lost.

RTS/CTS Threshold

The RTS/CTS Threshold is a station initiates the process by sending a RTS frame, the other ends receives the RTS and responds with a CTS frame, the station must receive a CTS frame before sending the data frame. This is to prevent the collisions by each station. Choose a setting within a range of 256 to 2432. It is recommended limiting a long packet to prevent each station waiting too long to transmit a data.
