7.12 Schedules

You can define schedule settings on the ZyXEL Device and apply these schedule settings in
other configuration screens (such as Game Hosting and Virtual Server).

Click Advanced > Schedules to display the configuration screen.

DTIM Interval

A DTIM (Delivery Traffic Indication Message) is included in a beacon to

synchronize wireless transmission. DTIM is a countdown information for wireless

clients to listen to the next broadcast or multicast messages.
Enter the time (between 1 and 255 ms) the ZyXEL Device waits between sending a

beacon with DTIM.

802.11d Enable

802.11d is a wireless communication specification for countries where other

IEEE802.11 devices are not allowed. 802.11d is suitable if you want global roaming

(that is using your wireless devices worldwide).
Select this option to enable this feature.

WMM Enable

Select this option to activate the WM (WiFi Multi-Media) feature on the ZyXEL

Device. This helps reduce latency and jitter when transmitting multi-media content

over the wireless connection.

Short GI

Select this option to set the ZyXEL Device to use a short guard interval (GI) of

400ns. This increases throughput at the cost of increased error rate in certain

network environments with greater radio interference.

WDS Enable

Select this option to activate the WDS (Wireless Distribution System) feature.
A Distribution System (DS) is a wired connection between two or more APs, while

a WDS is a wireless connection. An AP using WDS can function as a wireless

network bridge allowing you to wirelessly connect two wired network segments.

Note: You cannot enable WPA and WDS at the same time.

WDS AP MAC

Address

These fields display when you select WDS Enable.
Enter the MAC address (in six paris of dotted haxidecimal notation) of the

neighboring AP(s) that participates in the WDS.
