DESCRIPTION

WMM-Power

Select this option to extend the battery life of your mobile devices (especially

Save Enable

useful for small devices that are running multimedia applications). The G-210H

 

goes to sleep mode to save power when it is not transmitting data. The AP buffers

 

the packets sent to the G-210H till the G-210H “wakes up”. The G-210H wakes up

 

periodically to check for incoming data.

 

Note: This works only if the wireless device to which the G-210H is

 

connected also supports this feature.

 

 

Direct Link

Select this option to enable DLS (Direct Link Setup) on the G-210H. If there are

 

two DLS-enabled devices in the same wireless network, this allows the two

 

devices to communicate with each other directly. The packets will not go through

 

the AP and can increase throughput.

 

You need to enter the peer device’s MAC address in this screen.

 

The G-210H can associate with up to four DLS clients at a time, but you can only

 

enter one device’s MAC address in the G-210H’s utility. To have the G-210H set

 

up a second DLS connection, enter the G-210H’s MAC address in another peer

 

device.

 

Note: This feature is applicable only when the G-210H is in

 

Infrastructure mode and the connected AP or wireless router

 

is also DLS-enabled.

 

 

MAC Address

Enter the MAC address of the peer device that supports DLS.

 

 

Timeout Value

Enter the time in seconds (from 1 to 65535) for the G-210H to wait before it

 

automatically disconnects from the peer device when there is no traffic between

 

them.
