CONFIGURATION

 

 

 

Field

Description

 

Basic Rate Set

Allows you to set the transmission rate. The

 

access point broadcasts different transmission

 

rates so clients know which transmission rate to

 

use to join the network.

 

The options are:

 

1 to 2

The slowest speed available.

 

Mbps

 

 

Default

Ensures compatibility with

 

 

802.11b or 802.11g devices

 

All

Ensures compatibility with all

 

 

devices.

11g Protection

Ensures that your wireless access point does

Mode

not interfere with neighbor networks. 802.11g

 

networks cause collisions on 802.11b networks,

 

so the Protection Mode forces the 802.11g

 

network to negotiate around the 802.11b

 

network.

 

 

The options are:

 

Disable

802.11g Protection Mode is

 

 

never used.

 

Auto

802.11g Protection Mode is used

 

 

if either an 802.11b client joins

 

 

the network or the access point

 

 

detects an 802.11b network on

 

 

the same channel. Default

 

 

setting.

WDS Mode

Enables WDS mode, which allows you to share

 

and expand your network with other wireless

access points. The WDS fields, WDS Restrict Mode and WDS Restrict MAC address become active once WDS is enabled.

Set up the access point’s with the same Wireless SSID and security settings.

When WDS mode is enabled, any access point, if configured to your access point’s settings, can connect to your network. The default is disabled.
