BG Protection Mode

This mode is for the condition 11b and 11g devices are simultaneously used. "Auto" is recommended.

Beacon interval

Can adjust Beacon interval time. The range is 20\~999, and normally 100 ms is used.

Data Beacon Rate (DTIM)

Can adjust the ratio of data and Beacon signal.

Fragment Threshold

Data will be transferred divided by configuration value. If the value is small, connection will be more stable, but data rate will decrease. If the value is big, connection will be less stable, but data rate will increase. In case the connection is unstable, small value is recommended.

RTS Threshold

Data will be transferred by RTS/CTS. If the value is small, connection will be more stable, but data rate will decrease. If the value is big, connection will be less stable, but data rate will increase. In case the wireless devices are many, small value is recommended.

TX Power

Adjust TX power. Higher TX power, Wider the range.

Short Preamble

Short Preamble can bring a little improvement. But it will bring compatibility problem. For compatibility, "Disable" is recommended.

Short slot

This mode may improve the performance of 11g devices. But if Some devices have a connection problem, turn off this mode and retry.

Tx Burst

This mode may raise maximum speed. But in case the number of the wireless devices are many quantities, turn off this mode for stability.

Pkt\_Aggregate

In case wireless device support, This mode can raise network performance.

IEEE 802.11H Support

Not supported. This mode is for 11a.

Country Code

Select location for countries.

Wireless channels can be chagned.
