SSID

This is also called the "Network Name". Enter the desired value. The

 

default value is Wireless.

 

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

 

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

 

fier).

 

• To communicate, all Wireless stations use the same SSID/ESSID,

 

so must match the value entered here.

 

 

 

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 IAD-200W.

 

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

 

200W.

 

• 802.11b only - Only 802.11b connections are available. 802.11g

 

Wireless Stations will only be able to use the IAD-200W 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 SSID

If enabled, the IAD-200W will broadcast its SSID. This allows PCs

 

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.
