Ethernet
Select the desired speed and transmission mode from the drop-down menu. Half-duplex means that only one side can

or hub to automatically select the highest throughput option supported by both sides.

For best results, Proxim recommends that you configure the Ethernet setting to match the speed and transmission mode
of the device the Access Point is connected to (such as a hub or switch). If in doubt, leave this setting at its default,
auto-speed-auto-duplex. Choose between:
• 10 Mbit/s - half duplex or full duplex
• 100 Mbit/s - half duplex or full duplex
• Auto speed - auto duplex
