Section 3 - Configuration
Beacon Interval (25-
Beacons are packets sent by an access point to synchronize a wireless network. Specify a value in milliseconds. The default (100)
500):
is recommended. Setting a higher beacon interval can help to save the power of wireless clients, while setting a lower one can
help a wireless client connect to an access point faster.
DTM Interval Select a Delivery Traffic Indication Message setting between 1 and 15. The default value is 1. DTIM is a countdown informing cli-
(1-15): ents of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages.
Transmit Power:
This setting determines the power level of the wireless transmission. Transmitting power can be adjusted to eliminate overlap-
ping of wireless area coverage between two access points where interference is a major concern. For example, if wireless cov-
erage is intended for half of the area, then select 50% as the option. Use the drop-down menu to select 100%, 50%, 25%, or
12.5%.
WMM (Wi-Fi WMM stands for Wi-Fi Multimedia. Enabling this feature will improve the user experience for audio and video applications over
Multimedia): a Wi-Fi network.
To effectively optimize throughput over long distance links, enter a value for Acknowledgement Time Out from 64 to 200 micro-
Ack Time Out
(2.4 GHZ, 64~200) : seconds in the 2.4 GHz in the field provided.
Select Enable or Disable. Enabling a short guard interval can increase throughput. However, be aware that it can also increase
Short GI:
the error rate in some installations due to increased sensitivity to radio-frequency installations.
Select Enable or Disable. Internet Group Management Protocol allows the AP to recognize IGMP queries and reports sent
IGMP Snooping:
between routers and an IGMP host (wireless STA). When IGMP snooping is enabled, the AP will forward multicast packets to an
IGMP host based on IGMP messages passing through the AP.
Select the multicast rate for 2.4G band.
Multicast Rate:
Multicast Bandwidth
Adjust the multicast packet data rate here. The multicast rate is supported in AP mode and WDS with AP mode, including Multi-
Control : SSIDs.
Maximum Multicast
Set the multicast packets maximum bandwidth pass through rate from the Ethernet interface to the Access Point.
Bandwidth :
HT20/40
Enable this option to reduce interference from other wireless networks in your area. If the channel width is operating at 40MHz and
Coexistence : there is another wireless network's channel over-lapping and causing interference, the Access Point will automatically change to 20MHz.
Transfer DHCP Offer Enable to transfer the DHCP Offer to Unicast from LAN to WLAN, suggest to enable this function if stations number is larger than 30.
