30Chapter 6: Configuring the Wireless-G Access Point with Power Over EthernetThe Wireless - Advanced Wireless Settings TabWireless-G Access Point with Power Over EthernetThe Wireless - Advanced Wireless Settings TabThis screen allows you to configure the advanced settings for the Access Point. In most cases, these settings do not need to be changed.Advanced WirelessYou can change the data transmission and output power settings for the Access Point.CTS Protection Mode. The CTS (Clear-To-Send) Protection Mode function boosts the Access Point’s ability to catch all Wireless-G transmissions but will severely decrease performance. Keep the default setting, Auto, so the Access Point can use this feature as needed, when the Wireless-G products are not able to transmit to the Access Point in an environment with heavy 802.11b traffic. Select Enabled if you want to permanently enable this feature, or select Disabled if you want to permanently disable this feature.Wireless Isolation. When this feature is enabled, PCs using different SSIDs cannot see each other, so the different wireless networks are kept separate from each other. In most cases, including wireless hotspots, keep the default, Enabled. If you want PCs from different wireless networks to communicate, select Disabled.Basic Data Rates. This setting is not actually one rate of transmission but a series of rates that are advertised to the other wireless devices in your network, so they know at which rates the Access Point can transmit. At the Default setting, the Access Point will advertise that it will automatically select the best rate for transmission. Other options are 1-2Mbps, for use with older wireless technology, and All, when you wish to have all rates advertised. The Basic Data Rates are not the rates transmitted; the rates transmitted can be configured through the TX Rate setting on the Wireless - Basic Wireless Settings tab.Beacon Interval. This value indicates the frequency interval of the beacon. A beacon is a packet broadcast by the Access Point to keep the network synchronized. A beacon includes the wireless networks service area, the Access Point address, the Broadcast destination addresses, a time stamp, Delivery Traffic Indicator Maps, and the Traffic Indicator Message (TIM).DTIM Interval. This value indicates how often the Access Point sends out a Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM). Lower settings result in more efficient networking, while preventing your PC from dropping into power-saving sleep mode. Higher settings allow your PC to enter sleep mode, thus saving power, but interferes with wireless transmissions.RTS Threshold. This setting determines how large a packet can be before the Access Point coordinates transmission and reception to ensure efficient communication. This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. Should you encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications are recommended.Figure 6-11: Wireless - Advanced Wireless Settings Screencts (clear-to-send): a signal sent by a wireless device, signifying that it is ready to receive data.beacon internal: data transmitted on your wireless network that keeps the network synchronized.rts (request to send): a networking method of coordinating large packets through the RTS Threshold setting.dtim (delivery traffic indication message): a message included in data packets that can increase wireless efficiency.packet: a unit of data sent over a network.

This specifies the maximum size a data packet can be before splitting and creating a new packet. It should remain at its default setting of 2346. A smaller setting means smaller packets, which will create more packets for each transmission. If you have decreased this value and experience high packet error rates, you can increase it again, but it will likely decrease overall network performance. Only minor modifications of this value are recommended.Output Power. You can adjust the output power of the Access Point to get the appropriate coverage for your wireless network. Select the level you need for your environment. If you are not sure which setting to choose, then keep the default setting, 100%.Change these settings as described here and click Save Settings to apply your changes, or click Cancel Changes to cancel your changes.
