Setup

SSID

This is also called the "Network Name".

 

If using an ESS (Extended Service Set, with multiple access

 

 

points) this ID is called an ESSID (Extended Service Set

 

 

Identifier).

 

To communicate, all Wireless stations should use the same

 

 

SSID/ESSID.

 

 

 

Options

 

 

Mode

Select the desired mode:

 

802.11G-plus (TI) This allows clients to use any of the

 

 

following modes:

 

Standard 802.11b

 

802.11B+ (Texas Instruments proprietary enhanced mode)

 

Standard 802.11g

 

802.11G-plus (Texas Instruments proprietary enhanced

 

 

mode). This mode can increase throughput by up to 50%,

 

 

but will only work between compatible TI wireless stations.

 

802.11g & 802.11b - Both 802.11.g and 802.11b Wireless

 

 

stations will be able to use the ADW-4302v2.

 

802.11g only - Only 802.11g Wireless stations can use the

 

 

ADW-4302v2.

 

802.11b only - Only 802.11b connections are available.

 

 

802.11g Wireless Stations will only be able to use the ADW-

 

 

4302v2 if they are fully backward-compatible with the

 

 

802.11b standard.

Channel No. Select the Channel you wish to use on your Wireless LAN.

If you experience interference (shown by lost connections and/or slow data transfers) you may need to experiment with different channels to see which is the best.

If using multiple Access Points, adjacent Access Points should use different Channels to reduce interference.

Broadcast If enabled, the ADW-4302v2 will broadcast its SSID. This allows

SSIDPCs and other wireless stations to detect this Access Point and use the correct SSID.

If disabled, PC users will have to manually enter the SSID and other details of the wireless interface before they can connect to this Access Point.
