LABEL

DESCRIPTION

RTS/CTS

Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS (Request To

Threshold

Send)/CTS (Clear To Send) handshake.

 

Enter a value between 256 and 2432.

 

 

Fragmentation

The threshold (number of bytes) for the fragmentation boundary for directed

Threshold

messages. It is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter an even

 

number between 256 and 2346.

 

 

Output Power

Set the output power of the WAP3205 in this field. If there is a high density of APs

 

in an area, decrease the output power of the WAP3205 to reduce interference with

 

other APs. Select one of the following 100%, 90%, 75%, 50%, 25% or 10%.

 

See the product specifications for more information on your WAP3205’s output

 

power.

 

 

Network Mode

Select 11b only to allow only IEEE 802.11b compliant WLAN devices to associate

 

with the WAP3205.

 

Select 11g only to allow only IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to associate

 

with the WAP3205.

 

Select 11 b/g mixed mode to allow both IEEE802.11b and IEEE802.11g

 

compliant WLAN devices to associate with the WAP3205. The transmission rate of

 

your WAP3205 might be reduced.

 

Select 11 b/g/n mixed mode to allow both IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g and

 

IEEE802.11n compliant WLAN devices to associate with the WAP3205. The

 

transmission rate of your WAP3205 might be reduced.

 

 

HT (High Throughput) Physical Mode - Use the fields below to configure the 802.11 wireless environment of your WAP3205.
