Fragment length
(256-2346)
This specifies the maximum size of a data packet. It should remain at its
default setting of 2,346. A smaller setting means smaller packets, which will
create more packets for each transmission. If you have decreased this value
and experience high packet error rates, you can increase it again, but it will
likely decrease overall network performance. Only minor modifications of this
value are recommended.
RTS/CTS threshold
(256-2346)
Enter the preferred setting between 256 and 2346. Normally, this can be left
at the default value.
Short preamble
Preambles are a sequence of binary bits that help the receivers synchronize
and ready for receipt of a data transmission. Some older wireless systems
like 802.11b implementation use shorter preambles. If you are having
difficulty connecting to an older 802.11b device, try to enable short preamble.
Protection mode
Protection Mode should remain default value (Auto) unless you are having
severe problems with your 11g Wireless LAN products not being able to
transmit to the WAP-6100 in an environment with heavy 802.11b traffic. To
enable this function boosts the WAP-6100’s ability to catch all 11g Wireless
transmissions but will severely decrease performance.
Extended Range
Atheros eXtended Range technology is fully compatible with IEEE and Wi-Fi
Alliance standards. In outdoor environments, XR enables more economical
point to point fixed wireless system and provides for greater utility of public
hot spots infrastructure with increased numbers of users able to connect
each access point.
Distance (1-30) Setup “Distance” according to the longest link distance between the point to
point or point to multi-point in the network. The input needs to be greater
than or equal to the real distance. The range can be from 1KM to 30KM for
normal mode and 1KM to 15 KM in Super mode.
After all changes are made, be sure to click on “Apply” to make sure all changes are saved into system.
