USER GUIDE
• Suppress SSID: Select ‘Yes’ if you want to prevent the broadcast of the SSID in
beacons from all Wireless Modules in the Access/One Network (recommended).
• Enabling 802.11a Turbo Mode: Clicking on the ‘enable 802.11a Turbo mode’
checkbox will configure all 802.11a Wireless Modules in the Access/One Network to
operate in Turbo Mode. In this mode the 802.11a Wireless Modules will operate with
data rates at speeds up to 108 Mbps. This translates to nearly double the throughput,
but there are some limitations. These limitations are as follows:
o Only three operating channels are supported, as opposed to eight channels in
non-turbo mode.
o All user devices must also be capable of and configured for 802.11a Turbo
Mode. Note: Turbo Mode is not an industry standard and so not all 802.11a
user devices support this feature.
• Enabling 802.11g Only Mode: Clicking on the ‘enable 802.11g Only mode’ checkbox
will configure all 802.11g Wireless Modules in the Access/One Network to support
802.11g only. In this mode each 802.11g Wireless Module will only support 802.11g
user devices, which will improve the performance of the 802.11g network. If this mode
is not enabled (default configuration) the 802.11g Wireless Modules will support both
802.11b and 802.11g user devices simultaneously. Note: When this mode is enabled, all
802.11b user devices will loose connectivity to the 802.11g Wireless Module.
Click the ‘Update’ button at the bottom of the page to save any changes made to the settings in
