knowledge about wireless LAN. These settings should not be changed unless youknow what effect the changes will have on your Access Point.Beacon Interval: Beacon frames are transmitted by an access point at regularintervals to announce the existence of the wireless network. The default behavior isto send a beacon frame once every 100 milliseconds (or 10 per second).Data Beacon Rate (DTIM): Indicates rate that the access point will advertise to thenetwork for the purposes of setting up communication with other APs and clientstations on the network. It is generally more efficient to have an AP broadcast asubset of its supported rate sets.Fragment Threshold: Setting the Fragment Threshold can limit the size of packets(frames) transmitted over the network. If a packet exceeds the fragmentationthreshold set here, the fragmentation function will be activated and the packet willbe sent as multiple 802.11 frames. The default is 2346.RTS Threshold: The RTS threshold specifies the packet size of a request to send(RTS) transmission. This helps control traffic flow through the access point,especially one with a lot of clients. The default is 2347TX Power: Set from l - 100 to control the RF output power. This controls the distance of theRF signal transmitted.3.5.3 Wireless Access Security setupSetup the wireless security and encryption to prevent unauthorized access andmonitoring. It is recommended strongly that you choose this option to encrypt yourwireless network. The Security mode supports WEP(Open/Shared/Auto),WPA/WPA- PSK/WPA 2/WPA 2-PSK. You must setup the same securityparameters both on your router and the wireless client devices.3.5.3.1 WEP(Open/Shared/Auto)WEP is a protocol that adds security to WLAN based on the 802.11b standard . WEPwas designed to give wireless networks the equivalent level of privacy protection asa comparable wired network. As per figure 16 below, You can pre-set 4 WEP keys. The formatcan be ASCII or Hex string, Only the key you selected in the Default Key setting will be used.
