The Advanced page configures advanced features of the wireless LAN interface.
Advanced features include:
• Band — a default setting at 2.4GHz – 802.11g
• Channel — 802.11b and 802.11g use channels to limit interference from other devices. If
you are experiencing interference with another 2.4Ghz device such as a baby monitor,
security alarm, or cordless phone, then change the channel on your router.
• Auto Channel Timer — a timer that rescans and finds the best available channel for use
on your wireless network.
• 54g Rate — rate at which information will be transmitted and received on your wireless
network.
• Multicast Rate — the rate at which a message is sent to a specified group of recipients.
• Basic Rate — the set of data transfer rates that all the stations will be capable of using to
receive frames from a wireless medium.
• Fragmentation Threshold — used to fragment packets which help improve performance
in the presence of radio frequency (RF) interference.
• RTS Threshold (Request to Send Threshold) — determines the packet size of a
transmission through the use of the router to help control traffic flow.
• DTIM Interval — sets the Wake-up interval for clients in power-saving mode.
• Beacon Interval — a packet of information that is sent from a connected device to all other
devices where it announces its availability and readiness. A beacon interval is a period of
time (sent with the beacon) before sending the beacon again. The beacon interval may be
adjusted in milliseconds (ms).
• Xpress Technology — a technology that utilizes standards based on frame bursting to achieve
higher throughput. With Xpress Technology enabled, aggregate throughput (the sum of the
