Advanced

Advanced features of the wireless LAN interface can be

configured in this section.

Settings can be configured for the following—

• AP Isolation—if you select enable, then each of your

wireless clients will not be able to communicate with each

other.

• Band—a default setting at 2.4GHz – 802.11g

• Channel-- 802.11b and 802.11g use channels to limit

interference from other devices. If you are experiencing

interference with another 2.4Ghz device such as a baby

monitor, security alarm, or cordless phone, then change the

channel on your router.

• Multicast Rate—the rate at which a message is sent to a

specified group of recipients.

• Basic Rate—the set of data transfer rates that all the

stations will be capable of using to receive frames from a

wireless medium.

• Fragmentation Threshold—used to fragment packets which

help improve performance in the presence of radio

frequency (RF) interference.

• RTS Threshold (Request to Send Threshold)—determines

the packet size of a transmission through the use of the

router to help control traffic flow.

• DTIM Interval—sets the Wake-up interval for clients in

power-saving mode.

• Beacon Interval—a packet of information that is sent from a

connected device to all other devices where it announces

its availability and readiness. A beacon interval is a period

of time (sent with the beacon) before sending the beacon

again. The beacon interval may be adjusted in milliseconds
(ms).
