6.5 Advanced
The Advanced page allows you to configure advanced features of the wireless LAN
interface. You can select a particular channel on which to operate, force the
transmission rate to a particular speed, set the fragmentation threshold, set the
RTS threshold, set the wakeup interval for clients in power-save mode, set the
beacon interval for the access point and set whether short or long preambles are
used. Click Apply to configure the advanced wireless options.
Option Description
AP Isolation Select On or Off. By enabling this feature, wireless
clients associated with the Access Point will be able to
connect to each other.
Band The new amendment allows IEEE 802.11g units to fall
back to speeds of 11 Mbps, so IEEE 802.11b and IEEE
802.11g devices can coexist in the same network.
The two standards apply to the 2.4 GHz frequency
band. IEEE 802.11g creates data-rate parity at 2.4
GHz with the IEEE 802.11a standard, which has a 54
Mbps rate at 5 GHz. (IEEE 802.11a has other
differences compared to IEEE 802.11b or g, such as
offering more channels.)
