Access Point Name -

The name of the AP.

SSID -

It is an ASCII string, up to 32 characters, used to identify a

 

WLAN that prevents the unintentional merging of two co-

 

located WLANs. The ESSID value must be the same in all

 

stations and AP in the extended WLAN.

SSID Broadcasting -

When checked the Access Point broadcasts the SSID to the

 

stations, if not checked then the stations must know the Access

 

Point SSID in advance.

Channel -

Select the channel to be used. Depending on the Regulatory

 

Domain of the AP the number of available channels can be 1 - 14.

Fragmentation Threshold -

The size at which packets will be fragmented. Choose a setting

 

within a range of 256 to 2346 bytes.

RTS Threshold -

Minimum packet size to require an RTS (Request To Send). For

 

packets smaller than this threshold, an RTS is not sent and the

 

packet is transmitted directly to the WLAN. This is the option

 

for the RTS Threshold activation.
