+0x004A MaxBeaconLostTime u16
(kus)
0 default 500 If no beacons are received for this time period, the unit
will begin rescanning. 0 selects factory default.
Internally this will be converted to the number of
consecutively missed beacons that may occur before
rescanning. A minimum of eight consecutive missed
beacons starts rescanning.
+0x004C RefreshInterval u16
(kus)
0 default
-1
disables
10000 At the specified interval, the station will send a refresh
(null packet) to the AP. 0 selects factory default.
0xFFFF is used to turn off refresh.
Refresh packets serve two purposes: verify the AP is
still present, and indicate to the AP that the station is
still associated. The AP will send a disassociate packet
in response to the refresh packet if the AP has staled
out the association.
POWER SAVE OPERATION
+0x0050 PowerSaveMode u16 0 0 Note, for IBSS there is only one PSP mode and it is
only enabled if the ATIMwindow is non-zero.
0 = CAM
1 = PSP
2 = PSP-CAM [FASTPSP]
+0x0052 SleepForDTIMs u16 0 0 If non-zero, the station may sleep through DTIMs; this
may result in the station missing broadcast/multicast
traffic.
If zero, the station is required to waken for each DTIM.
Note, this parameter only applies to stations in
infrastructure/ESS mode
+0x0054 ListenInterval u16
(kus)
0 default 200 kus Maximum time to awaken for TIMs. 0 selects factory
default. (2 minute maximum)
Note, this parameter only applies to stations in
infrastructure/ESS mode
+0x0056 FastListenInterval u16
(kus)
0 default 100 kus The listen interval to be used immediately after
receiving packets. 0 selects factory default.
Note, this parameter only applies to stations in
infrastructure/ESS mode
+0x0058 ListenDecay u16 0 default 2 Number of times to use the current listen interval
before doubling it. 0 selects factory default.
Note, this parameter only applies to stations in
infrastructure/ESS mode
+0x005A FastListenDelay u16
(kus)
0 default 200 kus Time interval to delay before going to fast listen
interval after transmitting. 0 selects factory default.
Note, this parameter only applies to stations in
infrastructure/ESS mode
+0x005C Reserved u8[4]
ADHOC (or AP) OPERATION
+0x0060 BeaconPeriod u16
(kus)
0 default 100 0 selects the factory default of [~100 ms].
+0x0062 AtimDuration u16
(kus)
0 default 5 kus The time period reserved for ATIMs immediately after
the beacon.
0xFFFF will disable the ATIM window; power save
mode will not operate.
This parameter only applies to adhoc/IBSS.
+0x0064 Reserved u16 0 0 Reserved for future use
+0x0066 DSChannel u16 0 default 1 The desired operating channel. ()refer to 802.11)
For North America, a Channel of 0 is 2412 MHz.
+0x0068 Reserved u16 0 0 Reserved for future use
+0x006A DTIM Period u16 0 default 1 Selects how often a beacon is a DTIM for APs
+0x006C Reserved u8[4] 0’s 0’s Reserved for future use
RADIO OPERATION
+0x0070 RadioType u16 0 default 0 Selects the radio operational mode. By default, this will
select the 802.11 radio that corresponds to the
hardware.
Check the capabilities to see if this may be changed.
0 = 802.11 FH Radio (Default)
1 = 802.11 DS Radio
2 = LM2000 (Legacy) DS Radio
