FieldDescription
Operating Mode Sets how the SBG940 communicates with wireless clients (stations):
•11b/11g Standard — Enables all IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g clients to work with the SBG940. We recommend using this default setting in most cases because it is more flexible.
•11g Enhanced — Choose this option only if all IEEE 802.11g client adapters on the network support the
ADVANCED SETUP |
|
Transmit Power | Sets the SBG940 wireless transmission power — 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, or 100 mW. The default is |
| 32 mW. Transmission power control is an optional IEEE 802.11b feature. |
RTS Threshold | The Request To Send Threshold sets the minimum packet size for which the SBG940 issues |
| an RTS before sending a packet. A low RTS Threshold can help when many clients are |
| associated with the SBG940 or the clients are far apart and can detect the SBG940 but not |
| each other. It can be 0 to 2347 bytes. The default is 2347. |
Fragmentation | Sets the size at which packets are fragmented (sent as several packets instead of as one |
Threshold | packet). A low Fragmentation Threshold can help when communication is poor or there is a |
| significant interference. It can be 256 to 2346 bytes. The default is 2346. |
Beacon Period | Sets the time between beacon frames sent by the SBG940 for wireless network |
| synchronization. It can be from 1 to 999 ms. The default is 100 ms. |
DTIM Period | The delivery traffic indication message (DTIM) period is the number of Beacon Periods that |
| elapse before a wireless client operating in power save mode “listens” for buffered broadcast |
| or multicast messages from the SBG940. It can be from 1 to 99999. The default is 3. |
