Usually “Auto” is preferred. Under this rate, the LEVELONE 150MBPS WIRELESS POE AP 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.

Site Survey

Under wireless client mode, the LEVELONE 150MBPS WIRELESS POE AP 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”.
