DESCRIPTION

 

Preamble Type

A preamble affects the timing in your wireless network. There are two preamble modes:

 

 

long and short. If a device uses a different preamble mode than the WRE2205 does, it

 

 

cannot communicate with the WRE2205.

 

 

 

 

Tx Power

This field controls the transmission power of the WRE2205. When using the WRE2205

 

 

with a notebook computer, select a lower transmission power level when you are close to

 

 

the AP in order to conserve battery power.

DESCRIPTION

WMM QoS Policy

Enable this to have the WRE2205 automatically give a service a priority level

 

according to the ToS value in the IP header of packets it sends. WMM QoS (Wifi

 

MultiMedia Quality of Service) gives high priority to voice and video, which makes

 

them run more smoothly.
