Description

ESSID

Extended Service Set ID. The ESSID must be the same on

the Barricade and all of your wireless clients.

Transmission Rate

The default is Fully Automatic. The transmission rate is

automatically adjusted based on the receiving data error rate.

Usually the connection quality will vary depending on the

distance between the wireless hub and wireless adapter. You

can also select a lower transmission data rate to maximize

the radio communication range.

Basic Rate

The highest rate specified will be the rate that the Barricade

will use when transmitting broadcast/multicast and

management frames. Available options are: All (1, 2, 5.5, and

11Mbps), and 1, 2Mbps (default is 1, 2Mbps).

Channel

The radio channel must be the same on the Barricade and all

of your wireless clients.
The Barricade will automatically assign itself a radio channel,

or you may select one manually.
