Advanced Settings

The default advanced settings usually work fine. Except for the power saving setting, changing the
settings incorrectly could cause your wireless connection to fail. Change them only if you have a
specific reason to do so. To go to advanced settings, click the Advanced Settings button on the
Settings tab.
Note: For Windows Vista computers, you must have administrator rights to access the
Advance Settings screen.

• 2.4GHz Preamble. An Auto setting might give slightly better performance. A Long setting
might provide a more reliable connection or slightly longer range.
• Transmit Rate. Lowering the rate reduces the chance of interference with other nearby access
points but also reduces the range of your adapter.
