

Beacon Interval

: The router broadcasts beacon message to

announce that it has buffered frames to deliver. The default value

is 100 (ms).

Beacons are packets sent by an access point to

synchronize a wireless network. Specify a beacon interval value.

is recommended.



Data Beacon Rate(DTIM)

:

A Delivery Traffic Indication

Message(DTIM) informs next clients to listen to broadcast and

multicast messages.



Fragment Threshold

: This value should remain at its default

value of 2346. If you experience a high packet error rate, you

may slightly increase your fragment threshold. Setting the

fragment threshold too low may result in poor performance.



RTS Threshold

: Request To Send(RTS) threshold should be

remained as the value of 2347. If you encounter inconsistent

data flow, only minor modifications are recommended.



TX Power

: Transmit power should be remained as the value of

100.



Short Preamble

: The length of CRC block in the frames during

the wireless communication.



Shot Slot

: To indicate that 802.11g is using a shot time slot

because there is no legacy station(802.11b) present.



Tx Burst

: Tx burst allows router to deliver better throughput in

the same period and environment in order to increase speed.



Pkt_Aggregate:

Increase efficiency by aggregating multiple

application packets data into a single transmission frame. In this

way, 802.11n networks can send multiple data packets with the

fixed overhead cost in just a single frame.



IEEE 802.11H Support

: Support IEEE 802.11H or not.

The Wi-Fi multimedia parameters are shown below:



WMM Capable

: When multimedia contents are transferred over

wireless network, this function enhances data transfer

performance.



APSD Capable

:

Automatic Power Save Delivery(APSD),

enable

or disable data flow using APSD during transmitting for power

saving.

4. Security

Select

Wi-Fi Setting

→

Security

, the Security parameters

are shown in

the

following figure:

Unless one of these encryption modes is selected, wireless

transmissions to and from your wireless network can be easily

intercepted and interpreted by unauthorized users.

The security modes are described below:



Open

: You can authenticate successfully with a SSID, whether it is

valid or empty.



Shared

: The WLAN clients who have the same WEP key with

wireless gateway can pass the authentication and access the

wireless network.



WEPAUTO

: Select WEP security automatically.



WPA-PSK

:

WPA Pre-Shared Key, Enter the Pre-Shared key as a

plain text (ASCII) pass-phrase of at least 8 characters.



WPA2-PSK

:

I

t is the securer version of WPA with implementation

of the 802.11i standard.



WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK

:Apply both the WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK

scheme.

If the Authentication type is

Open

,

Shared

,

WEPAUTO,

the bottom

part of the configuration page displays parameters as shown.



WEP Keys

:

At most four keys can be set in the blank. Choose the

primary key index. The primary key is the only key in use at a

given time. Whatever keys you enter for an access point, you

must also enter the same keys for the client adapter in the same

order. In other words, WEP key 1 on the AP must match WEP

key 1 on the client adapter, WEP key 2 on the AP must match

Page 34 / 47

34

WEP key 2 on the client adapter, etc. A WEP is either 10 or 26

hexadecimal digits (0~9,a~f and A~F)based on whether you

select 64 bits 128 bits

in the

Encryption Strength drop-down list.

If the Authentication type is

WPA-PSK

,

WPA2-PSK

or

WPA-

PSK/WPA2-PSK

, the bottom part of the configuration page displays

WPA parameters.



WPA Algorithm

:

TKIP

,

AES

or

AUTO

.



Pass phrase

: You can input hexadecimal digits up to 64

characters or input ASCII characters choose a length of 63

characters or less.



Key Renewal Interval

: Define how long the key should be renew.

You can set

Wireless MAC Filtering

:



Wireless Disable

: If disabled, MAC address is not used to

control network access.



Wireless Allow

: Set the MAC address that is allowed to access

network.



Wireless Reject

: Set the MAC address that is not allowed to

access network.

4.2.7 Firewall

You may setup firewall rules to protect your network from virus, worm

and malicious activity on the Internet.

Note: You can set the maximum 10 filtering items for

MAC/IP/Port

Filtering

and

URL Filtering

.

1. MAC/IP/Port Filtering
