Speed	Select the Ethernet link speed. (Default is Auto)
	 Auto = Auto-negotiation of Link Speed
	 10 Mbps = Force 10 Mbps
	 100 Mbps = Force 100 Mbps
Duplex	Select the Ethernet link duplex mode. (Default is Auto)

Notes:

When speed is Auto, duplex must be Auto or Half.

When speed is not Auto, duplex must be Half or Full.

Fixed speed Full duplex will produce errors connected to Auto, due to duplex mismatch.

SmartRoam

SmartRoam monitors the signal strengths of all in-range access points belonging to the Extended Service Set (ESS) to which the PremierWave is currently connected. When an AP is found with a signal strength which is significantly greater than that of the currently associated AP, SmartRoam automatically switches to the new AP. This reduces interruptions in wireless connectivity and ensures optimal signal strength. Roaming happens automatically and is completely transparent to the user; no loss of network connectivity should occur.
