If the “Hidden Node” problem is an issue, please specify the packet size. The
RTS mechanism will be activated if the data size exceeds the value you set..
The default value is 2347.
Warning: Enabling RTS Threshold will cause redundant network
overhead that could negatively affect the throughput performance instead
of providing a remedy.
This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. Should you encounter
inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications of this value are recommended.
Beacon Interval: Beacon Interval is the amount of time between beacon
transmissions. Before a station enters power save mode, the station needs the
beacon interval to know when to wake up to receive the beacon (and learn
whether there are buffered frames at the access point).
Inactivity Time:
Data Rate: By default, the unit adaptively selects the highest possible rate
for transmission. Select the basic rates to be used among the following
options: Auto, 1, 2, 5.5, 11or 54 Mbps. For most networks the default setting
is Auto which is the best choice. When Auto is enabled the transmission rate
will select the optimal rate. If obstacles or interference are present, the
system will automatically fall back to a lower rate.
Preamble Type: A preamble is a signal used in wireless environment to
synchronize the transmitting timing including Synchronization and Start
frame delimiter. (Note: If you want to change the Preamble type into Long
or Short, please check the setting of AP)
Broadcast SSID:
Enable: This wireless AP will broadcast its SSID to stations.
Disable: This wireless AP will not broadcast its SSID to stations. If stations want to connect
to this wireless AP, this AP’s SSID should be known in advance to make a connection.
Apply Changes: Click to save and apply the current setting.
Reset: Click to clear and reset the current settings.
