wired interface. This can signicantly improve
the throughput in networks with a high volume
of multicast trafc that does not need to be sent
to clients sharing this access point (e.g.
Pronet/Minegem), but it will prevent
Minephones from making Push–To–Talk calls to
other Minephones currently on the same access
point..
1 Mbit/s - Only raise this if there
are issues with multicast trafc
throughput.
The rate at which multicast trafc is transmitted, in

RADIUS authentication server is used.

with the name "AP------" (the last six digits of the unit's MAC address), WPA2-AES security enabled
and the password "minesite".
