7.5.3 Wireless Advanced Settings
ƒ On this page you can configure the advanced settings to tweak the performance of your wireless
network. Options available are: data rate, transmit power, fragmentation threshold, RTS
threshold, protection mode and distance.
ƒ Data Rate: If you would like to have a fixed data rate, you may select one from the drop‐down
list. However, for best performance it is recommended to use the Auto setting.
ƒ Transmit Power: You may have the different application distance of the device by selecting a
value from the drop‐down list. This feature can be helpful in restricting the coverage area of the
wireless network.
ƒ Antenna: You can select the antenna polarization to Diversity, Horizontal or Vertical.
ƒ Fragment: Packets over the specified size will be fragmented in order to improve performance
on noisy networks.
ƒ RTS Threshold: Packets over the specified size will use the RTS/CTS mechanism to maintain
performance in noisy networks and preventing hidden nodes from degrading the performance.
ƒ Protection Mode: If your wireless network is using both 802.11b and 802.g devices then it is
recommended to enable this feature so that the 802.11b devices will not degrade the
performance of 802.11g devices.
ƒ WMM: Enable wireless Quality of Service
ƒ Distance (1‐30km): Specify a distance between 1 and 30Km.
