•1 CW Win - select the contention window size to 15 or 31. The contention window backoff
algorithm is a well know method used to resolve contention between different stations wanting
to access the medium. More information on the considerations for setting this parameter can
be found in the DS.11 FAQ in Appendix B.
•2 Maximum data rate - By default, the unit adaptively selects the highest possible rate for
transmission. Under certain conditions (for range/speed trade-off) you may decide not to use
the higher rates. Possible values are 2, or 5.5 or 11 Mbps. The default value is 11 Mbps.
•3 Transmit diversity - Set the antenna diversity option, which can be Antenna No. 1, No. 2, or
both (default: both antennas).
Note: In the present product release, antenna diversity is not supported; therefore, always select
Antenna No. 1.
•4 Range - Select the operative range of your WLAN in the drop down list.
