Parameters Description
Authentication Type Normally, you can leave this at “Auto”, so that Wireless Stations can use either
method ("Open System" or "Shared Key".).
If you wish to use a particular method, select the appropriate value - "Open
System" or "Shared Key". All Wireless stations must then be set to use the same
method.
Fragment Threshold “Fragment Threshold” specifies the maximum size of packet during the
fragmentation of data to be transmitted. If you set this value too low, it will result
in bad performance.
RTS Threshold When the packet size is smaller the RTS threshold, the access point will not use
the RTS/CTS mechanism to send this packet.
Beacon Interval The interval of time that this access point broadcast a beacon. Beacon is used to
synchronize the wireless network.
Data Rate The Data Rate is the rate of data transmission. The WRT-414 will use the highest
possible selected transmission rate to transmit the data packets.
Preamble Type Preamble type defines the length of CRC block in the frames during the wireless
communication. “Short Preamble” is suitable for high traffic wireless network.
“Long Preamble” can provide more reliable communication.
Broadcast ESSID If you enable “Broadcast ESSID”, every wireless station located within the
coverage of this access point can discover this WRT-414 easily. If you are
building a public wireless network, enabling this feature is recommended. In
