5 1.2 Feature Dual Mode Use this feature to configure 2.4G and 5G at the same time. Both 2.4G and 5G are functioning in the Access Point mode and it can save much time of configuration. Separate Mode Use this feature to configure 2.4G and 5G separately. 2.4G and 5G can function with different operation modes and it gives flexible choice of the wireless network. Access Point Mode Use this feature to setup the access point’s configuration information. It has support adjusting transmit power and channel. Client can access the network with different regulatory settings and automatically change to the local regulations. Client Bridge Mode Use this feature to connect to an Access Point and enjoy the great speed of surfing internet Client Router Mode Client Router Mode has the same abilities as Client Bridge Mode but it also supports WAN type of internet connection. Multiple SSIDs EOA7535 supports up to 4 SSIDs on your access point. The following options can be set to each SSID: - SSID for public or private network - Each SSID can be suppressed. - Authentication is fully supported - VLAN identifier VLAN Specify a VLAN number for each SSID to separate the services among clients. WMM Use this feature to limit the incoming or outgoing throughput. Wi-Fi Protect Access Wi-Fi Protect Access is a standard-based interoperable security enhancement that increases the level of data protection and access control for existing and future wireless LAN system. It is compatible with IEEE 802.11i standard WPA leverages TKIP and 802.1X for authenticated key management.

24 4.6 Wireless Advanced Settings If you do not have experience with Wireless Advanced Settings, we suggest remain all settings to default. Any modifies may cause insufficient wireless connection quality. 4.6.1 Advanced Settings (Access Point) Fragment Threshold Specify package size during transmission. If large amount of client are accessing to the network, specify small number of the fragment length in order to avoid collision. RTS Threshold Specify Threshold package size for Request To Send (RTS). Using small number of the threshold will cause RTS packets to be sent more often to consuming more of the available bandwidth. In addition, if the heavy load traffic occurs, the wireless network can be recovered easily from interferences or collisions. Beacon Interval Specify the time of Beacon Interval. Beacon is used to let wireless client scan the wireless AP is available. Site Survey scans the Beacon to verify which AP is in the nearby area. DTIM Period Delivery Traffic Indication Map (DTIM) is for the Power Saving purpose. Access Point sends the packet with beacon frame in the period of time. If the DTIM sets larger number, the wireless client may affect the latency throughput but save more power. Preamble Type Select the Radio button to choose Long Preamble or Short Preamble. Long Preamble can increase the capability of wireless network and wireless signal range. Short Preamble can increase the efficiency of the wireless network. Tx Power Auto power and the biggest is 20dBm Distance Specify distance rage between AP and Clients. Longer distance may lose high
25 connection speed. Layer 2 Isolation Select the Radio button to enable or disable Layer 2 Isolation. Layer 2 isolation prevents communication between wireless stations associated to different APs 4.6.2 Advanced Settings (Client Bridge / Client Router) Fragment Threshold Specify package size during transmission. If large amount of client are accessing to the network, specify small number of the fragment length in order to avoid collision. RTS Threshold Specify Threshold package size for Request To Send (RTS). Using small number of the threshold will cause RTS packets to be sent more often to consuming more of the available bandwidth. In addition, if the heavy load traffic occurs, the wireless network can be recovered easily from interferences or collisions. Preamble Type Select the Radio button to choose Long Preamble or Short Preamble. Long Preamble can increase the capability of wireless network and wireless signal range. Short Preamble can increase the efficiency of the wireless network. 802.11g Protection Select the Radio button to Protect types. When enable the protection mode, every time the packet is transmitted, it has to wait the CTS is received. In addition, Protection mode can prevent the collision but it will slow the wireless transmission speed. Tx Power Auto power and the biggest is 20dBm Distance Specify distance rage between AP and Clients. Longer distance may lose high connection speed. 4.7 Wireless Access Control List Wireless Access Control List is used to Allow or Deny wireless clients by their MAC addresses, accessing the Network.
