rates in between. This reduces the potential number of packet retransmission attempts, because
the radio attempts to transmit a packet three times before transitioning to the next lowest TX rate.
Note: If the Minimum TX Data Rate is set for 54 Mbps for the minimum and maximum, the auto
fallback capability is eliminated.
Enable Power Management
This allows the software to turn off the radio when expecting not to receive or transmit soon. This
feature reduces the power consumption by up to 170 mA. Enabling power management
increases the response time, because the radio needs to start up again. The radio is enabled to
synchronize and check for incoming messages (every 100 ms).
Note: This option is not available when the Topology is set to Adhoc.

Enable Soft AP Roaming
If enabled, the Lantronix SmartRoam technology manages the dynamic list of APs belonging to
the same network as the AP to which the WiBox 2100E is currently associated and stores
relevant selection criteria for this list. The WiBox 2100E uses these criteria to identify a candidate
AP. If the candidate AP is not the current one, the WiBox 2100E dissociates from the current AP
and associates to the candidate.
The roaming technology also triggers candidate selection if the WiBox 2100E reaches the
boundaries of good signal coverage for the current AP instead of waiting until signal quality
degrades substantially.
Choose to enable Y (Yes) or disable N (No) SmartRoam technology. The default value is N.

Max TX Failures
Determines the maximum number of consecutive transmit packet failures before the device will
drop its association with the AP and attempt to establish a new one. The range of attempts is 6 to
64; 255 equals disabled. The default is 6 failed attempts.
Max failed packets <6 – 64; 255=disable>: <6> ? _
