4.0 Configuration
This setting determines the rate at which the data is to be wirelessly transferred.
The default is ‘Auto’ and, in this configuration, the unit will transfer data at the highest possible rate in
consideration of the receive signal strength (RSSI).
Setting a specific value of transmission rate has the benefit of ‘predictability’ of that rate, but if the RSSI
drops below the required minimum level to support that rate, communications will fail.

Disabling the SSID broadcast helps secure the wireless network.
Enabling the broadcast of the SSID (Network Name) will permit others
to ‘see’ the wireless network and perhaps attempt to ‘join’ it.

When AP Isolation is enabled wireless devices connected to this SSID
will not be able to communicate with each other. In other words if the
pX2 is being used as a Access Point for many wireless clients, AP
Isolation would provide security for those clients by not allowing
access to any other wireless device.

Wireless distribution system (WDS) is a system enabling the wireless
interconnection of access points. WDS preserves the MAC addresses
of client frames across links between access points

When set in Mesh Mode, the MESH ID must be the same for all pX2
units participating, similar to the SSID for other wireless networks.
