Chapter 4: Configuring Wireless Access
upstream from the Repeater to the Access Point are reduced to 10 dBm.
This parameter is applicable only for radios set Access Point and Repeater
mode.
17. Enter the DTIM Interval that determines how often the Access Point sends notification of
the buffered data.
Note: A delivery traffic indication message (DTIM) is a map that informs
Repeaters and Clients about the presence of buffered multicast/broadcast
data on the Access Point waiting to be sent.
18. In the RTS Threshold field, enter the packet size in bytes that requires the WavePoint
10e to check the transmitting frames to determine if a Request to Send (RTS)/Clear to
Send (CTS) handshake is required with the receiving Client.
The default value is 2346, which effectively disables RTS.
Using a small value causes the device to send RTS packets more often,
consuming more of the available bandwidth; therefore, reducing the
apparent throughput of the network packets.
19. In the Max Range field, enter, in kilometers, the distance between this WavePoint 10e
and the farthest away device it is linking to.
The maximum is 2 times the distance (2x Distance).
20. Select the Country the WavePoint 10e is installed in.
21. Click Save to save the changes or Cancel to clear any changes without saving.
Verify the Wireless Connection
While the WavePoint 10e is easily accessible, verify that the wireless connection
is active.
Important: This procedure is only applicable to 2.4 GHz WavePoint™ devices.
1. Log out of the Configuration web pages.
2. Close the web browser.
3. Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the computer.
4. Using a computer with wireless capability, establish a wireless connection using the SSID
and Security Key defined in the Basic Radio Settings page.
