Advanced
This section allows you to set up
additional parameters for the
wireless gateway function. We
recommend that you use the
default values for all items in this
window.
Hide SSID - Selecting Yes will hide your AP from those clients that
query AP by broadcast packets, so only clients that are aware of the
SSID of the AP can connect to it.
Set AP Isolated? - Select Yes to prevent wireless clients from
communicating with each other.
Data Rate - Select the transmission rate. We recommend selecting
Auto to maximise performance.
Basic Rate Set - This field indicates the basic rates that wireless
clients must support.
Fragmentation Threshold (256~2346) – Fragmentation is used to
divide 802.11 frames into smaller pieces (fragments) that are sent
separately to the destination. Enable fragmentation by setting a
specific packet size threshold. If there is an excessive number of
collisions on the WLAN, experiment with different fragmentation values
to increase the reliability of frame transmissions. The default value
(2346) is recommended for normal use.
