Antenna

Choose the antenna type. Diverse, Primary, and Aux are the available settings.

Preamble

This is the preamble used in the wireless packets. It is recommended to set to "Default" so that the NIC can detect the correct preamble. The preamble is approximately 8 bytes of the packet header generated by the AP is and attached to the packet prior to transmission. The preamble length is transmission data rate dependent. The "short" preamble is 50% shorter than the "long" preamble. Transmit power is 0–100%. It must match the Access Point's preamble configuration.

NOTE: Preamble is not applicable for 802.11g/b.
