WiFi Setup 26 Disabled If you do not want to use any security method for your wireless network, choose Disabled. Advanced WiFi Setting AP Isolation: This isolates all wireless clients and wireless devices on your network from each other. Wireless devices will be able to communicate with the Router but not with each other. Frame Burst: Enabling this option may provide your network with greater performance. Authentication Type: The default is Open System authentication, where the sender and the recipient do not use a WEP key for authentication. To use a WEP key for authentication, select Shared Key. Basic Rate: The Basic Rate setting is not actually one rate of transmission but a series of rates at which the Router can transmit. The Router advertises its Basic Rate to the other wireless devices in your network, so they know which rates are used. The Router also advertises that automatically selects the best rate for transmission. The default setting is Auto, where the Router can transmit at all standard wireless rates. The Basic Rate is not the actual rate of data transmission. If you want to specify the Router’s rate of data transmission, configure the Transmission Rate setting.
WiFi Setup 27 Transmission Rate: The rate of data transmission should be set depending on the speed of your wireless network. You can select from a range of transmission speeds. CTS Protection Mode: CTS (Clear To Send) is a function used to minimize collisions among wireless devices on a wireless local area network (LAN). The default setting is Auto and the Router automatically uses CTS Protection Mode when your Wireless-G products are experiencing severe problems and are not able to transmit to the Router in an environment with heavy traffic. This function boosts the Router’s ability to catch all Wireless-B and Wireless-G transmissions, but it severely decreases performance. Beacon interval: Beacons are packets sent by an Access Point to synchronize a wireless network. Specify a value. 100 is the default setting. DTIM Interval: The default setting for DTIM (Delivery Traffic Indication Message) is 3. A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages. Fragmentation Threshold: The fragmentation threshold, which is specified in bytes, determines whether packets will be fragmented. Packets exceeding the setting value will be fragmented before transmission. 2346 is the default setting. RTS Threshold: This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. If inconsistent data flow is a problem, only a minor modification should be made.
