Hidden ESSID

This setting enables you to hide ESSID, which is needed by the users to
connect to AP. The default setting is Disable.


RTS Threshold

The default value of 2347 shall be retained. In case of inconsist data flow, it
is suggested to make some modifications. Enter a value within the range
0~2347 for the port. RTS (Request To Send) is a function,

requesting

permission to transmit signals. RTS is a collision avoidance method used by all 802.11b
wireless networking devices. In most cases you will not need to activate or administer RTS.
Only if you find yourself in an Infrastructure environment where all nodes are in range of the
Access Point but may be out of range of each other.


ESSID

ESSID or SSID means AP names in the wireless network. You should set
the same ESSID of all APs for dynamic clients to roam among APs. The
SSID is up to 32 ASCII characters in length and case sensitive (ie. Letters in
upper case “A~Z” and lower case “a~z” are unique).


Confirm your setting and click “Apply” button to save the settings in APs.
