Wireless LAN Access Point Configuration
10
Parameters Description
Auto Rate Fall Back Select Enable or Disable. When this is enabled, the
wireless network provides more flexibility when wireless
devices roam. As wireless devices move away from the
Access Point, the transfer rate will automatically fall
back to the most optimum rate allowed.
Wireless Channel Select the channel to be used. Channels differ from
country to country. There are 14 channels available.
WEP type Select the 64(40) or 128 bits Wired Equivalent Privacy
Algorithm.
WEP key Select one of the keys (1~4) as the WEP encryption key
for transmissions between stations and the Access Point.
Wireless Fragmentation
Threshold The size of the packets to be fragmented. Enter a value
within a range of 256 to 2346 bytes.
Wireless RTS Threshold Minimum packet size required for an RTS (Request To
Send) transmission. For packets smaller than this
threshold, an RTS is not sent and the packet is
transmitted directly to the WLAN. The value is in a range
of 256 to 2346 bytes.
WEP Keys #1 - #4 The default key that will be used. May be edited when
WEP type is 64(40) bits. Enter 10 digit Hex values (in the
range of “A-F”, “a-f” and “0-9”) as the encryption keys.
Preamble Type The preamble defines the length of the CRC block for
communication between the Wireless LAN Access Point
and the roaming Wireless Stations. The Short Preamble
option improves throughput performance.
