WMM

Enable WMM Support

Check this to enable WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) support in the
Access Point. If WMM is also supported by your wireless
clients, voice and multimedia traffic will be given a higher
priority than other traffic.

No Acknowledgement

If enabled, then WMM acknowledgement is disabled. Depend-
ing on the environment, disabling acknowledgement may
increase throughput slightly.

Parameters

Disassociated Timeout

This determines how quickly a Wireless Station will be consid-
ered "Disassociated" with this AP, when no traffic is received.
Enter the desired time period.

Fragmentation Length

Enter the preferred setting between 256 and 2346. Normally,
this can be left at the default value.

Beacon Interval

Enter the preferred setting between 20 and 1000. Normally, this
can be left at the default value.

RTS/CTS Threshold

Enter the preferred setting between 256 and 2346. Normally,
this can be left at the default value.

Preamble Type

Select the desired option. The default is "Long". The "Short"
setting takes less time when used in a good environment.

Output Power Level

Select the desired power output. Higher levels will give a
greater range, but are also more likely to cause interference with
other devices.

802.11b

Protection Type

Select the desired option. The default is CTS-only.

Short Slot Time

Enable or disable this setting as required.

Protection Mode

The Protection system is intended to prevent older 802.11b
devices from interfering with 802.11g transmissions. (Older
802.11b devices may not be able to detect that a 802.11g
transmission is in progress.) Normally, this should be left at
"Auto".

Protection Rate

Select the desired option. The default is 11 Mbps.
