4-26 Chapter 4: Configuration
Professional
This section allows you to set up
additional parameters for the wireless
router function. We recommend that
you use the default values for all
items in this window.
Enable Radio - This eld allows you to enable or disable Radio function. “Yes” is
the default option.
Date to Enable Radio - Schedule the date when you want to enable the Radio
function.
Time of Day to Enable Radio - Set the exact time on the scheduled date when
you want to enable the Radio function.
Set AP Isolated - Selecting “Yes” to prevent wireless client from communicating
with each other.
Multicast Rate (Mbps) - This eld allows you to specify the transmission rate.
Leave on “Auto” to maximize performance versus distance.
Basic Rate Set - This eld indicates the basic rates that wireless clients must
support. Use “1 & 2 Mbps” only when backward compatibility is needed for some
older wireless LAN cards with a maximum bit rate of 2Mbps.
Fragmentation Threshold (256-2346) – Fragmentation is used to divide
802.11 frames into smaller pieces (fragments) that are sent separately to the
destination. Set a specic packet size threshold to enable fragmentation. If there
is an excessive number of collisions on the WLAN, experiment with different
fragmentation values to increase the reliability of frame transmissions. The default
value (2346) is recommended for normal use.
RTS Threshold (0-2347) – The RTS/CTS (Request to Send/Clear to Send)
function is used to minimize collisions among wireless stations. When
RTS/CTS is enabled, the router refrains from sending a data frame until another
RTS/CTS handshake is completed. Set a specic packet size threshold to enable
RTS/CTS. The default value (2347) is recommended.
