Wireless Interface Commands

Example
preamble
This command sets the length of the signal preamble that is used at the start of a
802.11b/g data transmission.
Syntax
preamble [long | short]
• long - Sets the preamble to long (192 microseconds).
• short - Sets the preamble to short (96 microseconds).
Default Setting
Short-or-Long
Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Wireless - 802.11b/g)
Command Usage
• Using a short preamble instead of a long preamble can increase data
throughput on the access point, but requires that all clients can support a
short preamble.
• Set the preamble to long to ensure the access point can support all 802.11b
and 802.11g clients.
Example
antenna control
This command selects the use of two diversity antennas or a single antenna for the
radio interface.
Note: This access point does not support the use of optional external antennas.
Syntax
antenna control <diversity | left | right>
• diversity - The radio uses both antennas in a diversity system. Select this
method when the Antenna ID is set to “Default Antenna” to use the access
point's integrated antennas.
• left - The radio only uses the antenna on the left side (the side farthest from
the access point LEDs).
• right - The radio only uses the antenna on the right side (the side closest
to the access point LEDs).
