DESCRIPTION

Enable Wireless

LAN

You should configure some wireless security (see

Figure 19 on page 73

) when you

enable the wireless LAN. Select the check box to enable the wireless LAN.

ESSID

The ESSID (Extended Service Set IDentification) is a unique name to identify the

Prestige in the wireless LAN. Wireless stations associating to the Prestige must

have the same ESSID.
Enter a descriptive name of up to 32 printable characters (including spaces;

alphabetic characters are case-sensitive).

Hide ESSID

Select Yes to hide the ESSID in so a station cannot obtain the ESSID through AP

scanning.
Select No to make the ESSID visible so a station can obtain the ESSID through AP

scanning.

Channel ID

The radio frequency used by IEEE 802.11a, b or g wireless devices is called a

channel.
Select a channel from the drop-down list box.

RTS/CTS

Threshold

The RTS (Request To Send) threshold (number of bytes) is for enabling RTS/CTS.

Data with its frame size larger than this value will perform the RTS/CTS handshake.

Setting this value to be larger than the maximum MSDU (MAC service data unit)

size turns off RTS/CTS. Setting this value to zero turns on RTS/CTS.
Select the check box to change the default value and enter a new value between 0

and 2432.
