B/G Protection

If you have a mix of 802.11b and 802.11g wireless stations in the

 

network, it is recommended to enable the protection mechanism.

 

This mechanism can decrease the rate of data collision between

 

802.11b and 802.11g wireless stations. When the protection mode

 

is enabled, the throughput of the card will be a little lower due to

 

many of frame traffic should be transmitted.

 

Auto – Based on the status of the network and automatically

 

disable/enable protection mode.

 

On – Always enable the protection mode.

 

Off – Always disable the protection mode.

Tx Rate

There are several options including

 

Auto/1/2/5.5/11/6/9/12/18/24/36/48/54Mbps for you to select.

 

When the “Auto” is selected, the device will choose the most

 

suitable transmission rate automatically. The higher data rate you

 

designated in the network, the shorter distance is allowed

 

between the card and the wireless stations.

 

When the wireless mode is “802.11 B only”, the maximum data

 

rate is 11Mbps (11b) so that there are only “Auto/1/2/5.5/11Mbps”

 

options you can select.

Tx BURST

Tx Burst enables the card to deliver the better throughput in the

 

same period and environment. This feature only takes effect when

 

the connected AP also supports Tx Burst.

Enable TCP Window Size

The TCP Window is the amount of data a sender can send on a

 

particular connection before it gets an acknowledgment back from

 

the receiver that it has gotten some of it. This feature only takes

 

effect when the connected AP also supports TCP Window Size.

 

The larger TCP Window the better performance.

Fast Roaming at -70dBm

When you want to fast roaming to the network nearby without

 

intercepting the wireless connection especially the card is applied

 

to the multimedia application or a voice call, you can enable the

 

parameter. The card will fast roaming to the near network when

 

the receive sensitivity (signal strength) is lower to the value you

 

have set up.

Turn Off RF Button

If you want to turn off the radio of the card temporarily, click this

 

button. To turn on the radio, click this button again.
