DESCRIPTION

Wireless Advanced Setup

RTS/CTS

Threshold

Enter a value between 256 and 2346.

Fragmentation

Threshold

This is the maximum data fragment size that can be sent. Enter a value between

256 and 2432.

Output Power

Set the output power of the P-660HWP-Dx in this field. This control changes the

strength of the P-660HWP-Dx's antenna gain or transmission power. Antenna gain

is the increase in coverage. Higher antenna gain improves the range of the signal

for better communications. If there is a high density of APs within an area, decrease

the output power of the P-660HWP-Dx to reduce interference with other APs.
The options are Maximum, Middle and Minimum.

Preamble

Select Long preamble if you are unsure what preamble mode the wireless adapters

support, and to provide more reliable communications in busy wireless networks.
Select Short preamble if you are sure the wireless adapters support it, and to

provide more efficient communications.
Select Dynamic to have the P-660HWP-Dx automatically use short preamble when

wireless adapters support it, otherwise the P-660HWP-Dx uses long preamble.

802.11 Mode

Select 802.11b Only to allow only IEEE 802.11b compliant WLAN devices to

associate with the P-660HWP-Dx.
Select 802.11g Only to allow only IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to

associate with the P-660HWP-Dx.
Select Mixed to allow either IEEE802.11b or IEEE802.11g compliant WLAN

devices to associate with the P-660HWP-Dx. The transmission rate of your P-

660HWP-Dx might be reduced.
