Series - Wireless N150/N300 Router
Advanced
This tab allows you to set the advanced wireless options. You should not change these parameters unless you know what effect the
changes will have on the router.
Fragment Threshold: This specifies the maximum size of a packet during the fragmentation of data to be transmitted. If you set this value
too low, it will result in bad performance.
RTS Threshold: When the packet size is smaller than the RTS threshold, the wireless router will not use the RTS/CTS mechanism to send
this packet.
Beacon Interval: Interval of time the wireless router broadcasts a beacon, used to synchronize the wireless network.
DTIM Period: Enter a value between 1 and 255 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
Data Rate: The “Data Rate” is the rate that this access point uses to transmit data packets. The access point will use the highest possible
selected transmission rate to transmit the data packets.
N Data Rate: The “Data Rate” is the rate that this access point uses to transmit data packets for N compliant wireless nodes.
Channel Bandwidth:
This is the range of frequencies that will be used.
Preamble Type: The “Long Preamble” can provide better wireless LAN compatibility while the “Short Preamble” can provide better wireless
LAN performance.
CTS Protection: It is recommended to enable the protection mechanism. This mechanism can decrease the rate of data collision between
802.11b and 802.11g wireless stations. When the protection mode is enabled, the throughput of the AP will be a little lower due to a lot of
frame-network that is transmitted.
TX Power: This can be set to a bare minimum or maximum power.
Security
This Access Point provides complete wireless LAN security functions, included are WEP, IEEE 802.1x, IEEE 802.1x with WEP, WPA with pre-
shared key and WPA with RADIUS. With these security functions, you can prevent your wireless LAN from illegal access. Please make sure your
wireless stations use the same security function, and are setup with the same security key.
SSID Selection: This broadband router support multiple SSID, you could select and set up the wanted SSID.
Broadcast SSID: If you enabled “Broadcast SSID”, every wireless station located within the coverage of this access point can discover this
access point easily. If you are building a public wireless network, enabling this feature is recommended. Disabling “Broadcast SSID” can
provide better security.
WMM: Wi-Fi MultiMedia if enabled supports QoS for experiencing better audio, video and voice in applications.
Encryption: When you choose to disable encryption, your network is unsecured.
