Table 3 LED indicate method
The LED Signal indicator range could be configured from web page. The 4 signal level input
should be in ascending order form left to right. The value range of these 4 signal level is
-94~-10dBm. The default setting of LED signal threshold is -94, -80, -73 and -65. The 8
displayed signal levels are classified as:

4.11.7 Advanced Radio Setting
More radio parameters can be verified and altered by selecting the Advanced icon in the field of
Advanced Setting. The parameters are shown in Figure 21.
Data Rate: Default setting is "best". When the "best" data rate is chosen, the C1n AP attempts to
deliver unicast data frames at the highest possible "optimal" data rate that allows for reliable
data transmission. If there are obstacles or interferences, the AP automatically steps down to a
lower optimal data rate. Furthermore, the optimal data rate is adjusted periodically by the AP,
based on past performance of the data transmissions at different data rates.
Fragment Threshold: It means the size of each frame. If it is set to 256 bytes and the size of
data block is 1024 bytes, the data block will be divided to four frames to send.
RTS/CTS Threshold: RTS is a flow control mechanism to prevent collision between 802.11b
and 802.11g mobile stations to send data to the access point in the same time. CTS is another
flow control mechanism to prevent collision when two mobile stations, who do not know the
existence of each other, send data to the access point in the same time. RTS and CTS are used
for point-to-multipoint bridge application and they are enabled when the threshold set to 2346.
