Configuring Wireless Settings
Reviewing the Advanced::Common Options
This workspace permits access to advanced wireless functions. These settings should only be changed by
an experienced administrator. Incorrect settings can severely impact wireless performance. It is
recommended that the default settings be retained for best performance.
1.
In the Configure :: Wireless :: Common workspace, click
Edit Common Settings
.
Figure 36—
Configure :: Wireless :: Advanced :: Common page
2.
Make the following entries, as needed:
•
Data Rate
: The default value is
Best
. Select the preferred rate of data transmission from the
drop-down menu. Selecting Best allows the Metro Broadband Gateway to adapt data
transmission to the best rate available. The effectiveness of rates listed in the Data Rate
drop-down menu is dependent on the Wireless Mode previously specified.
WARNING:
—In order to fully benefit from the Metro Broadband Gateway capabilities, it is advisable not to
change this value unless absolutely necessary.
•
Transmit Power
: The default is
Full
. Select the level of transmit power from the drop-down
menu. This option sets the maximum transmit power level relative to the pre-defined power (this
value differs according to the current country code).
•
Protection Mode
:
Inactive
by default. If you activate protection, you control how 802.11 devices
know when they should communicate to another device. This is important in a mixed
environment of both 802.11b and 802.11g clients. WARNING: Activating this option (and
configuring the settings) boosts the interoperability of 802.11b and 802.11g devices
but will
severely decrease performance
.
•
CTS-only
: Choose this option to force all destination devices to acknowledge their ability to
receive data when a transmission is initiated.
•
RTS/CTS
: Choose this option to force both sending and receiving devices to confirm a data
exchange on both ends before proceeding.
For information on “Protection Mode”-specific Threshold options and how they can be customized, see
the following section,
"Setting Threshold Options" on page 45
.
3.
Click
Update Settings
to save and apply the changes.
