transmit the network name (SSID) into open air at regular
intervals. This feature is intended to allow clients to
dynamically discover the router. If this option is disabled,
the router will hide its SSID. When this is done, the
clients cannot directly discover the router and MUST be
configured with the SSID for access to the router. It is
used to protect your network from being accessed easily.
Relay Blocking
When you enable this function, wireless clients will not be
able to directly access other wireless clients.
Protection
This is also called CTS Protection. It is recommended to
enable the protection mechanism. This mechanism can
decrease the rate of data collision between 802.11b and
802.11g/802.11n wireless stations. When the protection
mode is enabled, the throughput of the AP will be a little
lower.
Aggregation
This is used to join multiple data packets for transmission
as a single unit to increase network efficiency.
Short GI
The 802.11n draft specifies two guard intervals: 400 ns
(short) and 800 ns (long). Support of the 400 ns GI is
optional for transmit and receive. Enabling this function
will increase network efficiency.
When you finish, click “Apply Changes.” You’ll see the following message

Click “Continue” to save the settings made and go back to the Web management
interface; click “Apply” to save the settings made and restart the router so the
settings will take effect after it reboots.
