ASUS 802.11g Access Point
Chapter 3 - Software Configuration
Access Point
Wireless
Click an item on the menu to reveal a submenu. Follow the
instructions to set up the ASUS 802.11g AP. Tips are
displayed when you move your cursor over an item.
Advanced
This section allows you to set up
additional parameters for the wireless
router function. We recommend that
you use the default values for all
items in this window.
Hide SSID - By default, “No” is selected so that wireless mobile users can
see your ASUS 802.11g AP’s SSID and join. If “Yes” is selected, your
ASUS 802.11g AP will not show in site surveys by wireless mobile clients
and they will have to manually enter your ASUS 802.11g AP’s SSID. If
you want to restrict access to “your” ASUS 802.11g AP , this is a simple
way to do it but for security reasons, don’t forget to change the SSID to
something other than “default”.
Set AP Isolated - Selecting Yes to prevent wireless client from
communicating with each other.
Data Rate (Mbps) - This field allows you to specify the transmission rate.
Leave on “Auto” to maximize performance versus distance.
Basic Rate Set - This field indicates the basic rates that wireless clients
must support. Use “1 & 2 Mbps” only when backward compatibility is
needed for some older wireless LAN cards with a maximum bit rate of
2Mbps.
