Parameter

Description

Tx Rate

There are several options including

 

Auto/1/2/5.5/11/6/9/12/18/24/36/48/54Mbps for you to select.

 

When “Auto” is selected, the device will choose the most

 

suitable transmission rate automatically. The higher data rate

 

you designate for the network, the shorter the distance is

 

allowed between the adapter and the wireless stations.

 

When the adapter works in 11b mode, the maximum data rate

 

is 11Mbps so the only selection will be “Auto/1/2/5.5/11Mbps”

SSID

The SSID (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) is the unique

 

name identified in a WLAN. The ID prevents the unintentional

 

merging of two co-located WLANs.

 

The default SSID of the AP is WLAN_AP. Wireless adapters

 

connect to the AP should set up the same SSID as the AP.

Hide SSID

If the “Hide SSID“ check box is enabled, the AP will not

 

appear in the site survey list of any wireless adapters.

 

Wireless adapters will have to manual set their SSIDs to

 

match that of the HWU54G in order to connect.

Tx Power

There are four levels for you to setup the transmission power

 

of the AP. The higher transmission power, the larger

 

transmission distance and wireless coverage.

Change/Apply

Clicking “Change“ will enable you to setup the parameters for

 

“General Connection Setting“. After you have adjusted your

 

settings, the button will change to “Apply“ for you to confirm

 

your settings.

WEP

Enable or disable WEP encryption function. If the WEP

 

function is enabled, only wireless adapters with the

 

same default key and WEP key setting can connect to

 

the AP.

Setting

Click “Setting“ to setup the WEP key. Please refer to

 

Section 3.3 for more description.
