EnGenius Mesh AP-EOA-8670 User Manual & Configuration Guide
EnGenius Mesh AP-EOA-8670 User Manual & Configuration Guide Page 18 of 67
wireless communication devices together to form a wireless network and
can relay data between wireless and wired devices.

it needs to connect to an AP to join the wireless network.
ADHOC mode will bring the wireless device to adhoc mode where no AP
is required. The connection is established for the duration of one session
by discovering others device within range.
WDS mode will bring the wireless device to form a wireless distribution
system that connects to other AP to form a larger network. Data can be
ralayed between 2 stations.
Only ADHOC mode is allowed in mesh network. Mode other than
ADHOC is disabled and not supported.
• Band – Click on “Band” drop down menu to select “802.11a”, “802.11b”
or “802.11g’ operating band. Choose 802.11a if you want to operates mesh
network under the 5GHz spectrum and up to 54Mbps. However, make sure
your hardware is supported for this kind of operation. Choose 802.11b for
operation under 2.4 GHz spectrums for rates up to 11Mbps. Choose
802.11g for operation under 2.4GHz that are backward compatible with
802.11b band. It can support rates up to 54Mbps.

length value, the wireless network can recover from interference and
collisions quicker at a cost of reducing the maximum throughput. Network
with heaving loading or interference is advised to use smaller value of
RTS.

Window is the upper limit (in milliseconds) of a range from which the initial
random backoff wait time is determined.
• CWMAX – Maximum contention window. Maximum Contention Window.
The value specified here in the Maximum Contention Window is the upper
limit (in milliseconds) for the doubling of the random backoff value.
• AIFS – The Arbitration Inter-Frame Spacing Number specifies a wait time (in
milliseconds) for data frames.
• TX OP LIMIT – Transmission Opportunity is an interval of time when a
WME AP/station has the right to initiate transmissions onto the wireless
medium (WM). This value specifies (in milliseconds) the Transmission
Opportunity (TXOP); that is, the interval of time when the WMM AP/station
as the right to initiate transmissions on the wireless network.
• ACM – Enable or disable Admission Control
• NO ACK POLICY – Enable or disable No-acknowledgement
• Best Effort – AP side, low priority, high throughput. Bulk data that requires
maximum throughput and is not time-sensitive is sent to this queue.
