Data Rate: IEEE802.11b supports Auto, 1, 2, 5.5, 11 Mbps signaling rate. EEE802.11g supports Auto, 6, 9,
12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 54 Mbps signaling rate. The data rate will change automatically to get better throughput
depending on range and environment of the wireless network.

Specify an appropriate preamble type for your network, if you do not know which one to select, keeping the
default setting Long Preamble is recommended.

802.11g Protection: In 802.11b/g Mixed mode, it can be used for protection mechanism. The 802.11g
OFDM traffic can keep the connection stable and avoid 802.11b interference. But that might cause the poor
throughput.
RF Output Power: You can adjust the percentage of power 100, 50, 25, 10, 5 of your Gateway to change
the coverage of wireless network. Keep the default value, 100% to reach full range.
Turbo Mode: The AP would identify the wireless station’s chipset to improve the performance.
