[. . . ] Depend on this function enable or not, you will see different item below Auto Channel. Channel: If Auto Channel is disabled, you should choose a static channel and AP will use this channel to communicate with other clients. Mode: WDS Wireless Distribution System, a system that enables the wireless interconnection of access point, allows a wireless network to be expended using multiple access points without a wired backbone to like them. Each WDS APs need setting as same channel and encryption type. MAC address 1~4: Please enter the MAC address of the neighboring APs that participates in WDS, we support 4 devices now. 15 Set Security: WDS Security depends on your AP security settings. Note: it does not support mixed mode such as WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK Mixed mode. Advanced This tab allows you to set the advanced wireless options. The options included are Authentication Type, Fragment Threshold, RTS Threshold, Beacon Interval, and Preamble Type. You should not change these parameters unless you know what effect the changes will have on the router. Fragment Threshold: This specifies the maximum size of a packet during the fragmentation of data to be transmitted. RTS Threshold: When the packet size is smaller than the RTS threshold, the wireless router will not use the RTS/CTS mechanism to send this packet. Beacon Interval: is the interval of time that this wireless router broadcasts a beacon. DTIM Period: Enter a value between 1 and 255 for the Delivery Traffic Indication Message (DTIM). A DTIM is a countdown informing clients of the next window for listening to broadcast and multicast messages Data Rate: The "Data Rate" is the rate that this access point uses to transmit data packets. The access point will use the highest possible selected transmission rate to transmit the data packets. N Data Rate: The "Data Rate" is the rate that this access point uses to transmit data packets for N compliant wireless nodes. Highest to lowest data rate can be fixed. 16 Channel Bandwidth: This is the range of frequencies that will be used. Preamble Type: The "Long Preamble" can provide better wireless LAN compatibility while the "Short Preamble" can provide better wireless LAN performance. This mechanism can decrease the rate of data collision between 802. 11b and 802. 11g wireless stations. When the protection mode is enabled, the throughput of the AP will be a little lower due to a lot of frame-network that is transmitted. TX Power: This can be set to a bare minimum or maximum power. Security This Access Point provides complete wireless LAN security functions, included are WEP, IEEE 802. 1x, IEEE 802. 1x with WEP, WPA with pre-shared key and WPA with RADIUS. With these security functions, you can prevent your wireless LAN from illegal access. Please make sure your wireless stations use the same security function, and are setup with the same security key. ESSID Selection: This broadband router support multiple ESSID, you could select and set up the wanted ESSID. Broadcast ESSID: If you enabled "Broadcast ESSID", every wireless station located within the coverage of this access point can discover this access point easily. If you are building a public wireless network, enabling this feature is recommended. WMM: Wi-Fi MultiMedia if enabled supports QoS for experiencing better audio, video and voice in applications. [. . . ] This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. 25 Limited Warranty TRENDnet warrants its products against defects in material and workmanship, under normal use and service, for the following lengths of time from the date of purchase.
