AP Isolation This option isolates all wireless clients and
wireless devices on your network from each other. Wireless
devices will be able to communicate with the Router but
not with each other. To use this option, select Enable. AP
Isolation is disabled by default.
Frame Burst This option should provide your network
with greater performance, depending on the manufacturer
of your wireless products. To use this option, keep the
default, Enable. To disable this option, select Disable.
Authentication Type The Authentication Type setting
is available if the Security Mode is RADIUS or WEP. The
default is set to Auto, which allows either Open System
or Shared Key authentication to be used. With Open
System authentication, the sender and the recipient do
NOT use a WEP key for authentication. With Shared Key
authentication, the sender and recipient use a WEP key for
authentication. Select Shared Key to only use Shared Key
authentication.
Basic Rate The Basic Rate setting is not actually one rate
of transmission but a series of rates at which the Router
can transmit. (The Basic Rate is not the actual rate of
data transmission. If you want to specify the Router’s rate
of data transmission, configure the Transmission Rate
setting.) The Router will advertise its Basic Rate to the other
wireless devices in your network, so they know which
rates will be used. The Router will also advertise that it will
automatically select the best rate for transmission. The
default setting is Auto, when the Router can transmit at
all standard wireless rates (1-2 Mbps, 5.5 Mbps, 11 Mbps,
18 Mbps, and 24Mbps). Select 1-2Mbps for use with older
wireless technology. Select All, when the Router can
transmit at all wireless rates.
Transmission Rate The Transmission setting is available
if the Network Mode is BG-Mixed, Wireless-G Only, or
Wireless-B Only. The rate of data transmission should be set
depending on the speed of your wireless network. Select
from a range of transmission speeds, or keep the default,
Auto, to have the Router automatically use the fastest
possible data rate and enable the Auto-Fallback feature.
Auto-Fallback will negotiate the best possible connection
speed between the Router and a wireless client.
N Transmission Rate The N Transmission setting is
available if the Network Mode is Mixed or Wireless-N Only.
The rate of data transmission should be set depending
on the speed of your Wireless-N networking. Select from
a range of transmission speeds, or keep the default,
Auto, to have the Router automatically use the fastest
possible data rate and enable the Auto-Fallback feature.
Auto-Fallback will negotiate the best possible connection
speed between the Router and a wireless client.
CTS Protection Mode The Router automatically uses CTS
(Clear-To-Send) Protection Mode when your Wireless-N and
