Parameter Meaning
Multicast Rate This setting controls the communication speed of multicast
packets.
When set to Auto (BRS), the communication speed is determined
automatically for maximizing the coverage distance.
802.11g
Auto, 1, 2, 5.5, 6, 9, 11, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, or 54 Mbps can be selected.
802.11a
Auto, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, or 54 Mbps can be selected.
Because the multicast communication speed and coverage
distance are inversely proportional to each other, this setting is
recommended only when necessary.
Tx Power Sets the signal transmission output when the AirStation performs
wireless transmission.
Beacon Interval Sets the interval for sending beacons.
If the beacon send interval is long, wireless communication
performance may be improved, but the capability of the wireless
device to detect the AirStation will be reduced.
Normally, usage at the default value is recommended.
Station Keepalive Species the interval for conrming whether the AirStation is
connected to the connected wireless device.
Normally, this setting can be used at the default value (60), but in
some wireless devices, setting a larger value enables more stable
communication and reduced power consumption.
When set to 0, the connection is not conrmed by the AirStation,
but in environments where a large unspecied number of wireless
devices are connected, a new wireless device may be unable to
make a connection.
