|
Wireless Mode | Select 802.11b/g to allow both IEEE802.11b and IEEE802.11g compliant WLAN devices |
| to associate with the |
| reduced. |
| Select 802.11b/g/n to allow IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g and IEEE802.11n compliant |
| WLAN devices to associate with the |
| NI might be reduced. |
| Select 802.11n to allow only IEEE802.11n compliant WLAN devices to associate with the |
| |
|
|
Channel | Select the operating frequency/channel depending on your particular region from the |
| |
|
|
Channel Width | This field displays only when you select 802.11n or 802.11b/g/n in the Wireless Mode |
| field. |
| A standard 20MHz channel offers transfer speeds of up to 150Mbps whereas a 40MHz |
| channel uses two standard channels and offers speeds of up to 300Mbps. However, not all |
| devices support 40MHz channels. |
| Select the channel bandwidth you want to use for your wireless network. |
| Select 20MHz if you want to lessen radio interference with other wireless devices in your |
| neighborhood or the wireless clients do not support channel bonding. |
|
|
Select SSID | The SSID (Service Set IDentifier) identifies the Service Set with which a wireless station is |
Profile | associated. Wireless stations associating to the access point (AP) must have the same |
| SSID. You can have up to eight SSIDs active at the same time. |
| Note: If you are configuring the |
| LAN and you change the |
| wireless connection when you press Apply to confirm. You must then change the |

Beacon Interval | When a wirelessly network device sends a beacon, it includes with it a beacon interval. |
| This specifies the time period before the device sends the beacon again. The interval tells |
| receiving devices on the network how long they can wait in lowpower mode before waking |
| up to handle the beacon. A high value helps save current consumption of the access point. |
|
|
DTIM Interval | Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM) is the time period after which broadcast and |
| multicast packets are transmitted to mobile clients in the Active Power Management |
| mode. A high DTIM value can cause clients to lose connectivity with the network. |
|
|
Output Power | Set the output power of the |
| an area, decrease the output power of the |
| APs. Select one of the following Full (Full Power), 50%, 25% or 12.5%. See the product |
