module-ACC04-05427A Omni-Directional Ant from the list for the 8dBi omni
antenna(s). The unit will not transmit until an antenna is selected.
(Default:id=0x0000, module=NA)
Antenna Control Method - Selects the use of two antennas operating in diversity
mode or a single antenna. (Default: Diversity)
Diversity: The radio uses two identical antennas in a diversity system.
Right: The radio uses a single antenna on the right side.
Left: The radio uses a single antenna on the left side.
Antenna Location – Selects the mounting location of the antenna in use. Selecting
the correct location ensures that the access point only uses radio channels that
are permitted in the country of operation. (Default: Outdoor)
MIC Mode – The Michael Integrity Check (MIC) is part of the Temporal Key
Integrity Protocol (TKIP) encryption used in WiFi Protected Access (WPA) security.
The MIC calculation is performed in the access point for each transmitted packet
and this can impact throughput and performance. The AP supports a choice of
software or hardware MIC calculation. The performance of the AP can be improved
by selecting the best method for the specific deployment. (Default: Software)
Hardware: Provides best performance when the number of supported clients is
less than 27.
Software: Provides the best performance for a large number of clients on one
radio interface. Throughput may be reduced when the 802.11g interface
supports a high number of clients simultaneously.
Super G The Atheros proprietary Super G performance enhancements are
supported by the access point. These enhancements include bursting,
compression, and fast frames. Maximum throughput ranges between 40 to 60
Mbps for connections to Atheros-compatible clients. (Default: Disabled)
Radio Mode – Selects the operating mode for the 802.11g wireless interface.
(Default: 802.11b+g)
NOTE
The Antenna ID must be selected in conjunction with the Antenna Control Method to configure
proper use of any of the antenna options.
