Usually “Auto” is preferred. Under this rate, the EKI-6311GN will automatically select the highest
available rate to transmit. In some cases, however, like where there is no great demand for
speed, you can have a relatively-low transmit rate for compromise of a long distance.
Channel Mode
Four levels are available: 5MHz, 10MHz, 20MHz and 40MHz. The last one can enhance data
throughput, but it takes more bandwidth, thus it might cause potential interference.
Extension Channel Protection Mode
This is to avoid conflict with other wireless network and boost the ability of your device to catch
all 802.11g transmissions. However, it may decrease wireless network performance. Compared
to CTS-Self; the transmission amount of CTS-RTS is much lower.
Enable MAC Clone
Available only under wireless client mode, it hides the MAC address of the AP while displays the
one of associated wireless client or the MAC address designated manually.
3.9 Site Survey
Under wireless client mode, the EKI-6311GN is able to perform site survey, through which,
information on the available access points will be detected.
Open “Basic Settings” in “Wireless”, by clicking the “Site Survey” button beside “Wireless Mode”
option, the wireless site survey window will popup with a list of available wireless networks around.
Select the AP you would like to connect and click “Selected” to establish connection. The wireless
site survey window can also be viewed by opening the “Site Survey” page in “Tools”.
