Extension Channel | If you select 40 MHz or Auto 20/40MHz as your Channel Bandwidth in the Wireless | |
| LAN > General screen, the extension channel enables the | |
| throughput. This also lowers radio interference and traffic. | |

Aggregation | Message Protocol Data Unit (MPDU) aggregation collects Ethernet frames along with their | |
| 802.11n headers and wraps them in a 802.11n MAC header. This method is useful for | |
| increasing bandwidth throughput in environments that are prone to high error rates. | |
| Mac Service Data Unit (MSDU) aggregation collects Ethernet frames without any of their | |
| 802.11n headers and wraps the | |
| This method is useful for increasing bandwidth throughput. It is also more efficient than | |

Short GI | Select Enable to use Short GI (Guard Interval). The guard interval is the gap introduced | |
| between data transmission from users in order to reduce interference. Reducing the GI | |
| increases data transfer rates but also increases interference. Increasing the GI reduces | |
| data transfer rates but also reduces interference. | |
|

Enable | A Basic Service Set (BSS) exists when all communications between wireless clients or | |
Traffic | between a wireless client and a wired network client go through one access point (AP). | |

| enabled, wireless client A and B can access the wired network and communicate with | |
| each other. When | |

6.7 Quality of Service (QoS) Screen
Use the QoS screen to enable Wifi MultiMedia Quality of Service (WMMQoS). This allows the NBG- 418N to automatically set priority levels to services, such as
