Home > LAN

LAN is short for Local Area Network. This is considered your internal network. These

are the IP settings of the LAN interface for the DWL-G730AP. These settings may be

referred to as private settings. You may change the LAN IP address if needed. The LAN

IP address is private to your internal network and cannot be seen on the Internet.

Subnet Mask-

The subnet mask of the LAN interface.

The default subnet mask is

255.255.255.0

IP Address-

The IP address of the LAN interface. The default IP address

is:

Beacon Interval:

Beacons are packets

sent by an access point

to synchronize a wireless

network. Specify a beacon

interval value. Default

(100) is recommended.

RTS Threshold

:

This

value should remain at its

default setting of 2432. If

you encounter inconsistent

data ﬂow, only minor modi-

ﬁcations to the value range

between 256 and 2432 are

recommended.

Fragmentation:

This

value should remain at its

default setting of 2346. If

you experience a high packet error rate, you may slightly increase your fragmentation

threshold within the value range of 256 to 2346. Setting the fragmentation threshold

too low may result in poor performance.

DTIM Interval

:

(Delivery Trafﬁc Indication Message) Enter a value between 1 and

255

(default is 3) for the Delivery Trafﬁc Indication Message (DTIM.) A DTIM is a

countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast

messages.

TX Rates:

Select the transmission rate for the network. The default setting is Auto.

Preamble Type:

Short Preamble

is the default setting. (High trafﬁc networks should

use the shorter preamble type.) The preamble deﬁnes the length of the CRC block

(Cyclic

Redundancy Check is a common technique for detecting data transmission errors) used

in communication between the access point and the wireless network adapters.

SSID Broadcast:

(Service Set Identiﬁer) Enable or Disable (default) the broadcast of

the SSID name across the network. SSID is a name that identiﬁes a wireless network.

All devices on a network must use the same SSID to establish communication.

Antenna Transmit Power:

Select the transmission power of the antenna. Limiting

antenna power can be useful for security purposes.
