Field Description
The maximum number of clients that can register with a wire-
less module depends on the specifications of the respective
WLAN module. This maximum is distrubuted across all wireless
networks configured for this radio module. No more new wire-
less networks can be created and a warning message will ap-
pear if the maximum number of clients is reached.
Possible values are whole numbers between  and '.
The default value is (.
Max. number of clients
- soft limit
Not all devices support this function.
To avoid a radio module being fully utilised, you can set a "soft"
restriction on the number of connected clients. If this number is
reached, new connection queries are initially rejected. If the cli-
ent cannot find another wireless network and, therefore, repeats
its query, the connection is accepted. Queries are only definit-
ively rejected when the Max. number of clients - hard limit is
reached.
The value of the Max. number of clients - soft limit must be
the same as or less than that of the Max. number of clients -
hard limit.
The default value is .
You can disable this function if you set Max. number of clients
- soft limit and Max. number of clients - hard limit to identical
values.
Client Band select
Not all devices support this function.
This function requires a dual radio setup where the same wire-
less networkis configured on both radio modules, but in different
frequency bands.
The Client Band select option enables clients to be moved
from the frequency band originally selected to a less busy one,
providing the client supports this. To achieve a changeover, the
connection attempt of a client is initially refused so that the cli-
ent repeats the attempt in a different frequency band.
