Rate
This drop-down list lets user specify the wireless communication rate, which
can be Auto (uses the highest rate when possible, or else a lower rate) or a
fixed rate between 1 and 54 Mbps.
Multicast rate
This drop-down list lets user specify the wireless communication rate for
multicast packets, which are sent to more than one destination at a time.
The value can be Auto (uses the highest rate when possible, or else a
lower rate) or a fixed rate between 1 and 54 Mbps.
Basic rate User has the option of supporting all rates listed in Rate
above or using the
1-, 2-Mbps rates, which support only older 802.11b implementations.
Fragmentatio
n threshold
A threshold, specified in bytes, that determines whether packets will be
fragmented and at what size. On an 802.11 connection, packets that are
larger
the fragmentation threshold are split into smaller units suitable for the circuit
size. Packets smaller than the specified fragmentation threshold value are not
fragmented.
Enter a value between 256 and 2346. If user experience a high packet error
rate, try to increase this value slightly. Setting the fragmentation threshold too
low may result in poor performance.
RTS
threshold
This is number of bytes in the packet size beyond which the gateway
invokes its RTS/CTS (request to send, clear to send) mechanism. Packets
larger than this threshold trigger the RTS/CTS mechanism, while the
gateway transmits smaller packets without using RTS/CTS. The default
setting of 2347, which is the maximum, disables the RTS threshold
mechanism.
Wireless ADSL Router USER MANUAL
25
DTIM interval
A delivery traffic indication message (DTIM), also known as a beacon, is a
countdown informing wireless clients of the next window for listening to
broadcast and multicast messages. When the gateway has broadcast or
multicast messages for its clients, it sends its next DTIM message with this
DTIM interval value. The clients hear the beacons and awaken as needed
to receive the broadcast and multicast messages.
Beacon
interval
The amount of time (in milliseconds) between beacon transmissions, each
of which identifies the presence of an access point. By default, wireless
clients passively scan all radio channels, listening for beacons coming from
access points. Before a client enters power-
save mode, it needs the beacon
interval to determine when to wake up for the next beacon (and learn
whether the access point has any messages for it). User can enter any
value between 1 and 65535, but the recommended range is 1 - 1000.

7. To configure security features for the Wireless interface, please open Security
item from Wireless menu. This web page offers nine authentication protocols for user to
secure user’s data while connecting to networks. There are four selections including
Open, Shared, 802.1X,WPA, WPA-PSK, WPA2, WPA2-PSK, Mixed WPA-WPA2, Mixed
WPA-WPA2-PSK. Different item leads different web page settings. Please read the
Wireless ADSL Router USER MANUAL
28
following information carefully.
The wireless security page allows user to configure the security features of user’s
wireless network.
There are several security methods to choose from, depending on user’s needs and the
capabilities of user’s wireless machines.
WEP open and WEP shared —WEP is an encryption scheme that is used to
protect user’s wireless data communications. WEP uses a combination of
64-bit keys or 128-bit keys to provide access control to user’s network and
encryption security for every data transmission. To decode a data
transmission, each wireless client on the network must use an identical 64-bit
or 128-bit key. WEP is an older wireless encryption method that is not as hard
to break as the more-recent WPA.
802.1x — In 802.1x (also known as RADIUS), a separate machine called an
authentication server receives a user ID and password. It grants or denies
access based on whether the ID and password match any entries in its
account list. User can optionally enable WEP encryption with this option.
Because it requires a separate machine acting as the authentication server,
802.1x is most often used in business environments.
WPA — WPA is a more recent encryption method that addresses many of the
Wireless ADSL Router USER MANUAL
29
weaknesses in WEP. Any client capable of WPA encryption should use it
instead of WEP.
WPA (PSK) — This is WPA encryption combined with a pre-shared key (PSK),
which is a text string known only to the gateway and authorized wireless
clients. The gateway rejects the login if the client's PSK does not match.
WPA2 — WPA2 is a more advanced encryption method than WPA. Because it
is a more recent standard, some of user’s wireless devices might not be able
to use it.
WPA2 (PSK) — This option uses WPA2 with a pre-shared key.
WPA2 and WPA — This option supports WPA2/WPA encryption for devices
capable of one or the other standard. The gateway automatically detects
whether a particular device can use WPA2 or WPA.
WPA2 AND WPA (PSK) — This has WPA2 or WPA encryption based on client
abilities, as well as a pre-shared key.
After making changes, click Apply to save.

5.4.3 SNMP Agent
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) has been widely applied in the computer
networks currently, which is used for ensuring the transmission of the management
information between any two nodes. In this way, network administrators can easily
search and modify the information on any node on the network. Meanwhile, they can
locate faults promptly and implement the fault diagnosis, capacity planning and report
generating.
An SNMP Agent is an application running on the Router that performs the operational
role of receiving and processing SNMP messages, sending responses to the SNMP
manager, and sending traps when an event occurs. So a Router contains SNMP "agent"
software can be monitored and/or controlled by SNMP Manager using SNMP messages.
SNMP Agent: You can select the checkbox to disable or enable the function.
Note:
SNMP Community string provides a simple method of authentication between the Router
(SNMP Agent) and a remote network manager (SNMP Manager). You can specify the
community string as the password to authenticate the management station to the Router.
