Maximum Power Save – the Wireless LAN USB 2.0 Adapter consumes the least
power. This mode only operates when there is wireless network activity.
Power Save – the Wireless LAN USB 2.0 Adapter consumes moderate level of
power.
Preamble: Select Long or Short & Long Preamble type. Preamble is a sequence of
bits transmitted at 1Mbps that allows the PHY circuitry to reach steady-state
demodulation and synchronization of bit clock and frame start. Two different
preambles and headers are defined: the mandatory supported Long Preamble and
header, which interoperates with the 1Mbps and 2Mbps DSSS specification (as
described in IEEE 802.11), and an optional Short Preamble and header (as
described in IEEE 802.11b). At the receiver, the Preamble and header are processed
to aid in demodulation and delivery of the PSDU. The Short Preamble and header
may be used to minimize overhead and, thus, maximize the network data
throughput. However, the Short Preamble is supported only for the IEEE 802.11b
(High- Rate) standard and not for the original IEEE 802.11 standard. That means
that stations using Short-Preamble cannot communicate with stations implementing
the original version of the protocol. Click “Apply” to save the changes.
Support Band: There are 2 modes the user can select; 11B and 11G. By default,
11B and 11G are enabled.
