DTIM Interval
Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM), also known as
Beacon Rate. The entry range is a value between 1 and
65535. A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next
window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages.
When the AP has buffered broadcast or multicast messages for
associated clients, it sends the next DTIM with a DTIM Interval
value. AP Clients hear the beacons and awaken to receive the
broadcast and multicast messages. The default is 1.
Beacon Interval
The amount of time between beacon transmissions. Each
beacon transmission identifies the presence of an access point.
By default, radio NICs passively scan all RF channels and listen
for beacons coming from access points to find a suitable access
point.
Before a station enters power save mode, the station needs
the beacon interval to know when to wake up to receive the
beacon (and learn whether there are buffered frames at the
access point).
The entered value is represented in ms. Default is 100.
Acceptable entry range is 1 to 0xffff (65535)
Xpress
TM
Technology
Xpress Technology is compliant with draft specifications of two
planned wireless industry standards.
54g
TM
Mode
Set the mode to 54g Auto for
the widest compatibility. Select the mode to
54g Performance for the fastest performance
among 54g certified equipment. Set
the mode to 54g LRS if you are experiencing
difficulty with legacy 802.11b equipment.
54g Protection
In Auto mode the router will use
RTS/CTS to improve 802.11g performance in
mixed 802.11g/802.11b networks. Turn
protection off to maximize 802.11g throughput
under most conditions.
Preamble Type
Short preamble is intended for application where maximum
throughput is desired but it doesn’t cooperate with the legacy.
Long preamble interoperates with the current 1 and 2 Mbit/s
DSSS specification as described in IEEE Std 802.11-1999
Transmit Power
The router will set different power output (by percentage)
according to this selection.

Quality of Service
WMM provides advanced quality of service (QoS) features for Wi-Fi networks to
improve the end-user experience by prioritizing audio, video and voice traffic and
optimizing the way shared network resources are allocated among competing
applications.
If you want to enable Click on the drop down menu and select, then click the

Station Info
This page shows authenticated wireless stations and their status.
BSSID
The BSSID is a 48bit identity used to identify a particular BSS
(Basic Service Set) within an area. In Infrastructure BSS
networks, the BSSID is the MAC (Medium Access Control)
address of the AP (Access Point) and in Independent BSS or ad
hoc networks, the BSSID is generated randomly.
Associated
Lists all the stations that are associated with the Access
Point, along with the amount of time since packets were
transferred to and from each station. If a station is idle for too
long, it is removed from this list.
Authorized
Lists those devices with authorized access.

Chapter 8 Diagnostics
The Diagnostics menu provides feedback on the connection status of the CT-5372
and the ADSL link. The individual tests are listed below. If a test displays a fail
status, click
Rerun Diagnostic Tests
at the bottom of this page to make sure the
fail status is consistent. If the test continues to fail, click
Help
and follow the
troubleshooting procedures.
Test
Description
Ethernet Connection
Pass:
indicates that the Ethernet interface from your
computer is connected to the LAN port of your DSL Router. A
blinking or solid green LAN LED on the router also signifies
that an Ethernet connection is present and that this test is
successful.
Fail:
Indicates that the DSL Router does not detect the
Ethernet interface on your computer.
USB
This option is for future release.
ADSL
Synchronization
Pass:
Indicates that the DSL modem has detected a DSL
signal from the telephone company. A solid WAN LED on the
router also indicates the detection of a DSL signal from the
telephone company.
Fail:
indicates that the DSL modem does not detect a signal
from the telephone company’s DSL network. The WAN LED
will stop blinking (i.e. training) and the LED will stop
illuminating (i.e. go blank).
